HBO’s long-awaited television adaptation of The Last of Us has kicked off with the premiere episode today, and a ton of positive reviews of the full season have recently dropped – including our which you can read right here.
The Last of Us is releasing new episodes weekly over its nine-episode season, but with the often-confusing world of region-based TV and movie streaming, you might be wondering exactly when and how you can get in on the action here in Australia.

Each episode of The Last of Us will drop on a Monday at 1PM AEDT, starting on Monday, January 16th and continuing on for the next eight weeks. The only exception is the fifth episode, which drops two days early on a Saturday.
