It’s definitely one of the series we’re most looking forward to in 2025. Remember, the adaptation of the video game The Last of Us was acclaimed by spectators, fans of the video game license and newbies alike. During its broadcast, the post-apocalyptic series broke records. She has also won two Emmy Awards and received multiple nominations for the 2023 Golden Globes.
Two years after the release of its first season, The Last of Us will return to our screens this year. To start 2025 off right, the Max streaming platform has not skimped. In addition to revealing a first trailer that makes our mouths water, season 2 of The Last of Us even offers a release date. Something to satisfy fans of the Naughty Dog license.
The Last of Us season 2 will be released in April 2025
If we were hoping for a release date at the very beginning of the year, the screenwriters’ and actors’ strike in Hollywood undermined our hopes. A few months ago, the CEO and president of HBO and Max Content announced that season 2 of The Last of Us would be released in spring 2025.
While Max has just published the first trailer for this new burst of episodes of The Last of Usthe platform has slipped some crucial information at the end of this overview. Indeed, season 2 of The Last of Us will be released in April 2025. If the date is not precise, we can already see a little more clearly and we imagine that we will know (very soon) when the continuation of the adventures of Joel and Ellie will officially be released.
Following the video game saga, season 2 of The Last of Us will take place five years after the events of the first batch of episodes. This new trailer focuses on Abby, played by Kaitlyn Dever (Booksmart), a new character who will be crucial in this new season. If you’ve played the games, you already know this…
Not surprisingly, the post-apocalyptic world of The Last of Us is more dangerous than ever and a distance has established between Ellie and Joel, still played by the excellent Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal.
In all likelihood, season 2 of The Last of Us is made up of 7 episodes and will only adapt part of the second video game, its story being much denser. One thing is certain, we’re going to have to get out the tissues. Visit Max in April 2025 to discover this new season of The Last of Us.
