One of the most cinematic story-based games you'll find on PC or anywhere else, The Last of Us Part 1 is a can't-miss game that'll please fans of story and action alike. This code offers the complete single-player story as well as the game's prequel chapter Left Behind, which explores the relationship between heroine Ellie and her best friend Riley before the events of the game occur. If you know someone who's into survival horror with gripping storytelling with a heavy dose of heartbreak, this is the perfect last-minute game gift. It's also just a great idea in general given that this is a steep discount.
