According to its official PlayStation Store page, The Last of Us Part 2 will be available as of 12 a.m. EDT on Friday, June 19. This timing is standard fare with regard to most major PlayStation Store releases, and it technically means folks on the West Coast can start playing on June 18 at 9 p.m. PDT.

It's worth noting that those who pre-order the game have the ability to pre-load it now and be ready to start playing as soon as the above-listed release time arrives. The game requires about 76GB of hard drive space.

What editions are available?

Most non-standard editions of The Last of Us Part 2 remain sold out at the time of this article's publication, but, as we inch towards the game's retail release date, it's possible more stock may soon become available. With that in mind, we've listed the contents of all major editions alongside links where you may be able to purchase them if more arrive.

Special Edition - $79 - [Amazon] [GameStop] [Best Buy] [Target]

Collector's Edition - $169 [Amazon] [GameStop] [Best Buy] [Target] [Walmart]

Ellie Edition - $229 [Amazon] [GameStop] [Best Buy] [Walmart]

In addition to these listed benefits, all editions of the game, including digital pre-orders from the PlayStation Store, also include bonuses, such as an ammo capacity upgrade and crafting Training Manual, the latter of which allows players to expand Ellie's skill set slightly earlier in the campaign than would otherwise be possible. That's all you need to know about The Last of Us Part 2 leading up to release.

The Last of Us Part 2 is available June 19 at 12 a.m. EDT on PS4. For more on Ellie and Joel's latest adventure, read our full review.
