Live action adaptations of iconic video games have an uneasy history. We all remember howAssassin’s Creedfailed to hit the sweet spot back in 2016. The jury is still out on whether Tom Holland’sUnchartedwas a success or not. But there is no doubt about the Pedro Pascal starrer,The Last of Us.

The Last Of Us

Based on the game of the same name developed by Naughty Dogs, the series does justice to the highly acclaimed game, bringing to life a compelling story which fans can’t help but get deeply involved in. And the return of Season 2 promises more of that, with a trailer that has piqued everyone’s interests.

As Season 1 drew to an end with Ellie surviving due to Joel taking matters into his own hands, it remains to be seen in what direction the show will go forward (players of the game might have more than an idea about that). It is anybody’s guess that Ellie will still be sought to find the cure. But how that pans out is something that we’ll find out in 2025 only.

And HBO has offered a sneak peek by officially releasing the trailer of the series, along with the description,

Opening with tunes from Pearl Jam’s Future Day, the series takes us back to a ravaged world that still looks for peace and security. And we witness it descend into chaos again. While the trailer might be silent on what direction the story will go forward in, it manages to hit the right vibe.
