HBO’s ‘The Last of Us’ Season 2 Trailer Unleashes Abby & April 2025 Release

The popular HBO show “The Last of Us” has unveiled a fresh trailer and confirmed the launch date for Season 2. Since the initial series debuted in January 2023, fans have eagerly anticipated updates about the second season, which will be based on the second video game titled “The Last of Us Part II”. Recently, we’ve been treated to a short sneak peek of the upcoming series and the official air date: April 2025.

The game “The Last of Us Part II” stirred up much debate due to its content and characters, with discussions still ongoing. This was largely because a hacker gained access to Naughty Dog’s servers, the company responsible for the series, leaking parts of the story before release. As a result, the upcoming second season, which will be based on this game, promises to be even more intriguing due to all the ongoing conversations about its narrative decisions.

In the freshly released teaser for HBO’s “The Last of Us,” you’ll notice many familiar sights (and sounds) reminiscent of “Part II.” For those unfamiliar with the games and only acquainted with the show, there are plenty of recognizable characters from Season 1 as well as some new ones. Kaitlyn Dever, portraying Abby Anderson, is prominently featured in this latest trailer. The trailer also includes a lot of action involving Gabriel Luna’s character Tommy, Bella Ramsey’s Ellie, and Jeffery Wright playing Isaac, another new character (Wright reprises his role from the 2020 video game).

The Last of Us’ Season 2 is Just the Beginning

Given the thrilling trailer for The Last of Us Season 2 and its upcoming release date, there are still numerous unanswered questions, particularly regarding a potential third season that could carry on the narrative. Notably, showrunner and writer Craig Mazin has previously hinted at the series’ future. However, since the first season of The Last of Us effectively concluded the story from the initial game, there’s a possibility that the new season might not encompass the entire plot of the second game. The narrative of Part II is significantly longer than the first game, which means it could require more episodes than one season to fully develop, along with any adaptations the creators decide to implement in this live-action adaptation.

The makers of “The Last of Us” have explicitly mentioned that it won’t extend beyond the stories told in the games, leaving discussions about possible third and fourth seasons intriguing and thrilling. Regardless, for diligent gamers, there are numerous auditory and visual hints reminiscent of pivotal story events, while fans of the zombie genre can look forward to various tantalizing glimpses of all types of infected causing chaos.

The fresh trailer for “The Last of Us” Season 2 offers a tantalizing glimpse without spilling any story secrets for those new to the initial game. With April fast approaching, there’s much anticipation surrounding the series’ future, particularly in terms of how many seasons it might need to fully adapt the grand and expansive narrative found in “The Last of Us Part II.
