Naughty Dog has released the first official information on The Last of Us’ Season Pass, confirming that the game is set to receive single-player DLC.
“The Last of Us is a universe rich in character and story with many facets that we could potentially explore for years,” said Naughty Dog community strategist Eric Monacelli on the PS Blog. “We’re getting started by announcing that there will be three packs of downloadable content for The Last of Us available after the game launches.”
He continued: “For the first time ever we’ll be offering single player DLC. The journey and cast of characters in The Last of Us lends itself to thorough narrative exploration and we’ve got more of the story to tell.”
Details on whether the single-player DLC will continue Joel and Ellie’s story or tell an alternate tale have yet to be revealed.
In addition to the single-player content, The Last of Us’ Season Pass will also contain two multiplayer DLC packs featuring additional maps and “other expansions”, as well as perks and bonuses available on day one, including increased crafting speed, increased healing speed, 9mm reload speed upgrade, rifle clip capacity upgrade, and an exclusive 90 minute “Making Of” documentary.
The Season Pass costs €19.99/$19.99, and offers a 30% saving on the cost of the individual packs. A UK price has not been announced.
A digital copy of The Last of Us is also available to pre-order from PlayStation Store now, Monacelli confirmed.
The downloadable version, which will be available alongside the retail version on June 14, will include a “unique download installer” enabling players to load up the game after 50 per cent of the download has completed.
The first details on The Last of Us’ multiplayer will be revealed “over the next couple of days”.
