There is still time to enjoy The Last of Us On Video Prime. In an email, some subscribers to the Amazon streaming platform have been warned that the adapted series of the eponymous video game would leave the Prime Video catalog from July 15. This is what journalist Stéphane Bauza showed on Twitter, spotted by Numerama.
In a few days, the nine episodes of the first season – already renewed – will join the Warner Pass. This paid supplement (9.99 euros per month) has given access to HBO content since the start of the year, such as Game Of Thrones, Sex & The City or Euphoria.
Dissemination without additional cost for six months
The release of The Last of Us had generated concerns to know where the series was going to be legally available in France. On January 1, HBO content had simply disappeared from French platforms after the end of an exclusivity contract with OCS. In the process, Canal+ had taken up the platform, but without offering a solution to view the HBO series.
It was not until January 12 that the information fell: Prime Video was going to disseminate The Last of Us, whose first episode was released only three days later. The announcement also mentioned the creation of the Warner Pass from March 17. In the meantime, subscribers at Prime Video were able to benefit from the adaptation of video games without additional cost.
But from July 15, six months after the first broadcast of The Last of Us, The exception will end. The HBO series will comply with the Warner Pass rule, which will really become the only way to access the creations of the American television channel.
The Last of Us will be withdrawn from Amazon Prime Video
From July 15, the series The Last of Us, Adapted from eponymous video games, will no longer be offered to the Prime Video subscribers. In accordance with its agreement with the Warner Bros group. Discovery, Amazon will join the series at the Warner Pass, sold 9.99 euros per month.
You had to expect it, but how not to be disappointed ? In January 2023, while The Last of Us was without a diffuser and that OCS had just lost the rights of HBO content, Amazon had presented himself as a Savior by announcing that he was going to broadcast the series from his first day of broadcasting in the United States, thanks to a partnership with the Warner group Bros. Discovery (which has HBO). Very good news for fans of the license, who nevertheless raised lots of questions. Had Amazon bought the French rights of The Last of Us for real ? Or had he only concluded a broadcast agreement for season 1 ?
On June 25, by email, Amazon warned some of its subscribers from the withdrawal of the series from its catalog on July 15, precisely six months after the very first episode broadcast. It was therefore a short-term partnership.
The Last of Us will join the Warner pass… before max ?
Unsurprisingly, it is on the Warner pass that will land The Last of Us (and probably his future seasons). Marketed at a price of 9.99 euros per month in the form of an option at Prime Video, the Warner Pass offers all HBO, Discovery, Eurosport, TCM, Warner, Cartoon Network content… The Warner Pass had been launched after the end Partnership with OCS.
By season 2 of The Last of Us, It is not impossible that the Warner Bros group. Discovery finally launches Max, its streaming service formerly known as HBO Max. If Max arrives in France, the future of the Warner Pass could be threatened, even if it is possible that it is content to change its name and remains integrated at Prime Video, in the form of an Amazon Channel.
If you haven’t seen The Last of Us And that you do not plan to subscribe to the Warner Pass, it is strongly recommended to do so in the coming weeks. It is unlikely that the series will one day come back to a streaming service like Prime Video or Netflix, given the habit that Warner Bros. Discovery to protect your own content. Its partnership with Amazon was an anomaly, which only lasted 6 months.
