Cosplayers have captured one of The Last of Us' saddest moments in a shot that honors Joel and Sarah. The Last of Us-inspired cosplay that fans of the series create never ceases to amaze. From Ellie and Dina cosplay to Clicker makeup that looks a little too real, it seems as though TLoU faithful have left no stone unturned. It's fitting, then, that Joel and Sarah count as the latest pair to receive a costumed tribute.
Players spend a very little amount of time with Sarah in the franchise's groundbreaking debut entry. Still, that fleeting prologue sequence perfectly encapsulates why the next couple of decades prove so tortuous for Joel. The father-daughter duo enjoyed a close connection, so much so that both went out of their way to show love to the other. This much even seems evident during scenes where the two are separated. And while the public waits to see how the upcoming Last of Us TV series translates Joel's and Sarah's bond to a new medium, fans of the source material found another way to bring the duo to life.
