The last time we saw Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey), they had finally reached Jackson, Wyoming, after enduring a brutal cross-country trek. But even within the safety of a new home, the weight of Joel's final decision still hangs heavy between them. Now, years later, their journey continues — only this time, the threats aren't just Clickers. New allies and enemies enter the mix, including Kaitlyn Dever as Abby, Isabela Merced as Dina, and Young Mazino as Jesse, all familiar names for fans of the game.

One interesting shift this season? The timeline. While The Last of Us Part II jumps forward four years, the show is taking a slightly longer leap, picking up five years after Season 1's events. It might seem like a small change, but given how closely the first season followed the game, this tweak could signal some unexpected storytelling choices.
