In honor of this year’s The Last of Us Day, which, as we all know, marks the day the Cordyceps Brain Infection overtook the world, I thought I would share some of the best screenshots from my recent trek through the PS5 remake of my favorite game of all time. As an added service, I have saved the most heartwarming (read: ultra-violent) shots for the final gallery (Making Friends), so you can feel free to browse the rest without concern for anything aside from nine year old spoilers.

Even my fourth time through, that was still one heck of a heartwarming adventure through the U.S. with some good friends. If you are looking for more TLOU holiday content, you can check out my posts on The Power of Dread in The Last of Us and my Review of The Last of Us: Part II. Here’s hoping next year’s 10th TLOU Day Celebration brings even more joy.
