You may wonder, is The Last of Us on Xbox? The Last of Us has become of the biggest franchises in gaming since the launch of the first title back in 2013. Since then, we've seen a sequel, an announcement for two more games in the universe, and a critically acclaimed HBO show.

The Last of Us and its sequel are not available to play on Xbox, as they are first-party titles for the PlayStation console. 

They were developed by Naughty Dog, a game development company that's been owned by Sony since 2001, when it was busy making the Crash Bandicoot series. Sony has a strict exclusivity policy for its first-party titles, meaning it's extremely unlikely that they'll ever be available to play on an Xbox console. 

However, that doesn't mean that a PlayStation is the only way to play the series. The Last of Us Part I is set to launch on PC for the Steam platform in March 2023, marking the first time that the series will be playable outside of the PlayStation ecosystem. 

Sony has started to release more of their exclusives to Steam over the past few years, so if TLOU Part I is successful, it's very likely that the sequel will be released on PC too. 

It's also worth noting that despite the exclusivity of The Last of Us, you can still watch the series on Xbox by using the HBO app.

That's all for our answer to the question, is The Last of Us on Xbox? Now you know that the game is a PlayStation exclusive, but it will soon be available on PC.

We also cover all The Last of Us Part I actors, so you can see the face behind the voice.
