The Last of Us Part 1 — a remake of the 2013 PlayStation 3 classic — brings some of the best features from 2020’s The Last of Us Part 2 to the original game. And while the long-awaited sequel to The Last of Us was divisive for both critics and fans, it vastly improved on the series’ accessibility settings.
