Made official last June, the remake of The Last of Us (baptized The Last of Us Part I, no doubt in reference to The Last of Us Part II) sparked controversy due to its price, which was considered excessive by a certain number of players. . Indeed, to obtain the standard edition (including the main adventure and the "Left Behind" extension), you will have to spend 80 €, knowing that the game was released on PS3 in 2013, then on PS4 in 2014 under the form of a remastered version. And we're not even talking about the Deluxe digital edition, which costs €90. In short, there is enough to cry foul.
“It’s just a cash grab”
Actually it’s the most meticulously built and crafted project that I have ever seen or been a part of in my entire career. The highest level of care and attention to detail possible. pic.twitter.com/csjZ3kZMyG

On Twitter, Robert Morrison wanted to speak on the subject. " "This is theft." In fact, it's the most meticulously designed project I've seen or been involved with in my entire career, including an extremely high attention to detail, explains the one who officiated as animator . I do not have the hand on the price of the game, knowing that the value which one grants to something is a purely subjective concept. You can decide to take it or not. All I'm saying is I am awestruck by all the hard work put in by a wonderful group of people. A lot of passion was infused into the game.”
If discontent quickly won the ranks of the community, it should nevertheless be noted that some believe that the quality of the remake is well worth spending 80 €. The talent that Naughty Dog has shown in the past is probably no stranger to it. For the record, The Last of Us Part I will be released on PS5 on September 2.
