Standalone release for The Last of Us ‘Left Behind’ DLC hits next week

The Last of Us DLC release Left Behind will get a standalone digital release on PS3 and PS4, Naughty Dog has announced.

A post on the PlayStation Blog by the studio’s community strategist Arne Meyer reveals that the prequel of sorts will launch on its own for $9.99 on both Sony’s current and last-gen hardware.

"While part of the story of Left Behind takes place during the main narrative arc of The Last of Us, I think some of the best and most touching moments of any game in recent memory occur during the prequel segments, as we follow Ellie and Riley as they sneak out of boarding school to visit an abandoned mall, getting one final chance to enjoy their friendship before Riley leaves to join the Fireflies,” Meyer wrote.

Meyer adds that the price of the DLC for The Last of Us on PS3 will be lowered to match the cost of the new standalone release.
