The Last of Us Season 2 Episode 2 Release Date, Time, Trailer, and Plot Guide

The Last of Us Season 2 is back with more thrilling adventures that fans of the video game adaptation have been eagerly waiting for. In Season 2 Episode 1, we caught up with Joel and Ellie five years after their previous journey. Now settled in Jackson, they face new threats from an evolving horde of Infected and Abby, who seeks revenge against Joel.

Episode 2 of The Last of Us Season 2 is set to premiere on April 20, 2025, on HBO and Max. You can catch the new episode on Sunday nights, a prime slot for HBO’s top-tier shows.

The episode will be available to stream on Max as soon as it airs on HBO at 9:00 p.m. ET/6:00 p.m. PT, so you can watch it simultaneously with everyone else, even without cable.

While there isn’t a specific trailer for Episode 2, a “Weeks Ahead” trailer released after Episode 1 gives fans a glimpse of what’s to come in the rest of the season, including the introduction of the Seraphites and Abby’s relentless pursuit of Joel.

Rumored to be titled “Through the Valley,” Episode 2 is shrouded in mystery. The title is a nod to Psalm 23, reflecting the challenges posed by both the Infected and Abby in Jackson.

Unlike Season 1, which had nine episodes, Season 2 will only consist of seven episodes, focusing on the first half of The Last of Us Part II game. Despite this, HBO has already renewed the series for a third season, ensuring more thrilling content for fans.

Co-showrunner Craig Mazin has hinted that the show will stick closely to the game’s storyline, but with unexpected twists thrown in. So buckle up for an exciting ride ahead!
