Release Date:

The series has been adapted from a video game which was previously known as Outbreak Day (later changed to The Last of Us) and is scheduled to be released in 2023. The specific dates for the release are not yet disclosed but HBO has dropped a 1-minute-38-second-long trailer with the message “Save who you can save” on Twitter. Along with that, HBO has also shared a five-second-long clip of sound which is terrifying to listen to.

Plot:

As was shown in the video game TLOS, America is shown turning into a dystopian land signalling the arrival of deadly zombies. The landscape is set in a tone that is dull and deserted whereas the song Alone and Forsaken by Hank William is playing in the background.

Joel is shown in action along with Ellie, who is his ward in the series. They are on a mission to save and be saved from the zombie outbreak where they are struggling to survive. Pascal is seen being focused on protecting a young girl who might be their saviour from this whole chaotic situation.
