Warning: Full spoilers ahead for episode 7 of HBO’s The Last of Us.
HBO’s The Last of Us episode 7 has arrived and this time we see Ellie and Riley reunite for a surprise trip to the mall just like The Last of Us: Left Behind DLC. But how close does the show compare to the game?
To help answer this question, we’ve gathered images from episode 7 of HBO’s The Last of Us and put them next to stills from Naughty Dog’s The Last of Us game to see how faithful the adaptation is. Check out the slideshow, or watch the video above to see the scenes from both the show and the game in action.
In our The Last of Us episode 7 review, we said it “is a beautifully faithful adaptation of the beloved Left Behind chapter of Ellie’s story. A real showcase for Bella Ramsey’s ability as a performer, we’re treated to a story of young love that is equal parts heartwarming as it is heartbreaking. It’s also a necessary tale to be told; a flashback that gives us a deeper understanding of the person Ellie is today and what drives her motivations in the present.”
