Now that season one of The Last of Us' TV adaptation has run its course, it has become available on a bunch of new services and platforms. Previously, you could only watch the show on HBO Max in North America or NOW in the UK, but having had a look around, it's now been distributed to other apps as well.
In addition to the above services, The Last of Us is currently available on Amazon Prime Video, iTunes, Sky Go, and Hulu. We'll update this article if and when we find more places to watch it. Whether it's included within the subscription or is up for standalone purchase differs per app, but if you've been waiting for the show to hit a service you're part of, the pool has now been widened a fair bit.
It's also now available to pre-order on DVD and Blu-ray:

We'd definitely recommend checking it out. Although it isn't perfect, The Last of Us has been translated nicely to television, and is well worth a watch whether you're a fan of the games or not.
Have you been watching The Last of Us as it goes out, or will you be catching up now on a different service? No spoilers in the comments section below.

Amazon Prime you say? I can finally watch it. Woohoo!
The Last Of Us was on Sky Atlantic 108 in UK every week.
Sky TV is still counted as a service right? 😂
The 4K blu-ray is up for pre-order as well.
its 19quid on Amazon prime
Awesome, I'm glad I waited as NOW TV's streaming quality is abysmal. I'll probably get the 4K blu ray of it
@The_Pixel_King
To buy.
Despite loving the games (Part II being one of my all-time favourites), I have little to no interest in watching this. Hearing that the story feels rushed feels like even less incentive to give it a try.
Years down the line, is the opinion going to be that there should have been more time devoted to the story of the first game? I fully understand pacing, brevity, less is more, but this world holds so much opportunity and it sounds like there is potentially a lot left unexplored.
Surely it was on sky now all along?
Nothing is on now that isn’t on sky? Now is the pay per month version of sky…
It is also available on amazon on 4k,bluray and dvd to pre-order and it has a cool looking steelbook too... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Last-Us-Season-Steelbook-Blu-ray/dp/B0BXY52F3Q/ref=tmm_frk_title_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
@carlos82 agreed I may or may not of used something what rhymes with modi to watch it in 4k. Because I thought now tv is actual robbery in the clearest form.
But this article forgets to mention that it's not actually on amazon prime. Its just to buy.
But at least its available else where
@The_Pixel_King
I would say Part II is also my favourite game also - what it does in terms of storytelling is way beyond anything I see elsewhere - it is beyond peer and sets a new standard.
If the series had been free on Prime I would have given it a look, but I’m really not that interested.
I’m in the US, don’t see it on Amazon Prime except thru HBO. I do see a free weekly trial of HBO which might be the best way to go for Prime subscribers.
Amazing news, at least I can watch it on prime, was getting difficult to try and watch it when I don't have HBO in the 1st place
@The_Pixel_King I felt the same lol is it available in the UK same as the US?
@Wheatly it's not part of the subscription? Bah 😤😤 I guess I need to contact the captain, shiver me timbers 😏😏
Streaming as it currently stands will never beat the quality of a physical 4K disc no matter how good your Internet is
It’s very interesting how inverted gaming and tv are at the moment.
While certain companies find it unsustainable to offer games day one on subscription services, TV shows are day one streaming without an option to buy at all, and only become available for sale after everyone had a chance to watch the whole thing for free.
Yet you don’t see show producers complaining about unsustainability, or what not.
This is the most invested in a show I have been since Breaking Bad ended.
Um... I ran to my Hulu and my Amazon Prime account to go add it to my queue, and guess what I found??? You still have to have an HBO subscription to watch it. So no thank you.
"you could only watch the show on HBO Max in North America"
Here we go again with PushSquare thinking Canada doesn't exist. HBO Max is not available in Canada, which is a large part of North America. The Last of Us was streamed on Crave in Canada.
@Wheatly Yeah, same. I'd never tried NOW before, but what a rip off. £9.99 a month and £6 extra for 1080p! Unbelievable.
@fatdragon £50. Run time 1 minute. 🤣
@Wheatly A week of boost for 7 days too. I have 4 episodes left to go. I haven't been that impressed with the show and the 1080p doesn't help. When I watch it, I find myself wanting to play the game instead.
I agree, the app is poor. Even subtitles don't work. I'll be glad to say goodbye to NOW.
Here in India, it streams on a local platform HotStar. They provide access to HBO Max shows. Costs around US$ 12/annum. Although the quality for TLoU is 1080p SDR. I wonder if it streams on 4K HDR elsewhere.
@bpomber
It’s ok, you guys are the best neighbors an American could ever hope to have.
Siblings now and forever. 🇺🇸🇨🇦
@OrtadragoonX Thanks, eh. Sending some Maple Syrup your way as a gift for your kind words.
@bpomber
I shall return the favor with a double cheese sandwich.
HBO have really done themselves a disservice by allowing Now TV to be the primary way to watch their shows in the UK without signing a contract. £10 for 720 with ads, £16 for 1080 and no ads. I happily paid £70 to play the first game (for like the 10th time) on PS5 but paying £32 to watch this show once on Now was a massive rip off.
I’m sticking with piracy and blu rays next time they release something I wanna watch.
PushSquare should also add South East Asia too it’s available there via the HBO Go App for only 4 or 5 US Dollars.
Already finished the series via HBO Max, but good to know!
