‘The Last Of Us’ DLC Outlined, Includes A Single-Player Expansion
If you’re planning on getting The Last of Us, Sony has just made the Digital Edition available for pre-ordering. They’ve also revealed the game’s Season Pass, which will unlock the three downloadable content packs developer Naughty Dog will release for it. Two of the packs will add to the multiplayer, and one will contribute to the single-player campaign.
The Season Pass will cost $19.99 and along with the DLC it unlocks, you’ll also get a bevy of extras, including faster crafting, healing, and reloading. It’ll also bring with it the 90-minute Grounded doc that follows the development of The Last of Us. The game launches on June 14 for the PS3 — if you need something to tide you over until then, you should definitely watch this amazing web series inspired by the game.

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war, but it was a cheerful illustrator from England who helped to define the terrifying war-torn imagery that inspired what we now know as Grimdark (a hybrid genre combining horror with sci-fi/fantasy).
Unfortunately for fans of Warhammer 40,000, Trench Crusade and countless other sources of Grimdark thrills, veteran artist John Blanche passed away this week after struggling with health issues for the past few years.
While the artist retired back in 2023, he leaves us with an enormous legacy of iconic artwork that continues to inspire gamers and storytellers around the world to this very day.
The news is especially gloomy as it was only last year that Daniel Lowman and Napoleon Dynamite himself Jon Heder released The Grim & the Dark: The Search for John Blanche, a documentary following Heder’s exploration of the Grimdark genre culminating in a heartwarming encounter with Blanche in his own home.
Below is one of my favorite pieces by Blanche, his highly influential depiction of Warhammer 40k’s God-Emperor of Mankind on his Golden Throne.
We send our deepest condolences to John Blanche’s family, friends, and fans.
