The Last of Us Season 2 is one of the most highly anticipated new television seasons in 2025. Here is everything you need to know about the latest season’s release schedule and the times that new episodes come out.
Movie and video game adaptations have been rather hit or miss, but The Last of Us exceeded expectations and entered the realm of prestige television. And, Season 2 has already surpassed the first season, as the first episode of the second season saw a 10% viewership boost.
Yet, there is a catch because Season 2 only covers the first half of the second game. If fans don’t want to wait, The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered will be released on PC soon. But before looking ahead to the last half of the second game, here is everything you need to know about Season 2.
