Here’ѕ wһаt we know аbout ‘Tһe Lаѕt Of Uѕ’ ѕeаѕon two

There's a second game to pull from, but don't expect 'The Last Of Us' to go on forever

The Last Of Us is the rarest of things – a live action video game adaptation that doesn’t suck.

Released in 2023 to critical acclaim, HBO’s The Last Of Us takes place 20 years after modern civilisation has been destroyed. Joel (Pedro Pascal), a hardened survivor, is hired to smuggle Ellie (Bella Ramsey), a 14-year-old girl, out of an oppressive quarantine zone. What starts as a small job soon becomes a brutal and heartbreaking journey as they travel across America and depend on each other for survival.

Based on the celebrated PlayStation game of the same name, original series creator Neil Druckmann co-wrote the HBO series and served as executive producer which goes some way to explain The Last Of Us’ monumental success.

The first episode of The Last Of Us became HBO’s second biggest premiere in over a decade after House Of The Dragon, racking up 4.7 million viewers in the US across HBO and streaming service HBO Max.

Viewership of the second episode jumped up to 5.7 million viewers, a 22 per cent increase. But will the show get a second season?
