The Season Pass doesn’t include this DLC, so if you want to play the new multiplayer maps or this new difficulty for single player, you’re going to have to do so at an extra expense Sorry guys, got some bad info – the Season Pass does include this DLC.

With checkpoints often spread out during fights, one wrong move can mean losing 15 minutes of careful planning and execution.


This means that you’ll have to go the stealthy route every time, sneaking up behind your enemies to take them out. With damage ramped up like this, it’s hard enough for Joel to take on opponents in a fist fight – forget about gun fights. However, it takes away from one of the aspects of the game that I enjoyed the most – the ability to play it however you like. Perhaps for some players who have already beaten the game on all the hardest difficulties, the Grounded DLC will offer a new challenge. Unfortunately, I don’t believe the game is changed for the better. Add to that the fact that enemies dish out twice the damage while Joel has half the resistance/health, and you end up with a game changing difficulty. Wondering how long that bat will last before breaking or how much health Joel still has left? Too bad for you! Without the ease of seeing these things, the game becomes exponentially more difficult. Of course, Grounded difficulty takes the game to a whole new level.įirst of all, say goodbye to all your HUD elements. It was still a challenging game at times, and I heard people rave about how much better it was on hard. This meant that I had the awesome ability to hear through walls to determine enemy locations, had a reasonable amount of ammo available and decent survivability. I played The Last of Us on normal for my first play through. But now it has a new DLC to make it harder. It was one of the top games of the year, getting tons of awards. It was a fantastic game that took me on an incredibly emotional journey. I believe most of you know that I enjoyed The Last of Us last year.
