The Last of Us: Left Behind

The Last of Us is one of those rare gems in gaming that brings an experience so moving and so intense that it leaves an impression on anyone who plays it. One of 2013’s biggest hits, it is definitely a tough act to follow.

An enjoyable intriguing piece of DLC that doesn't add much to the almighty experience that was The Last Of Us.
