The Final of Us was a reasonably darkish narrative about forming relationships in an unforgiving world, however followers weren’t prepared for the locations the sequel would go when The Final of Us Half II launched again in 2020. With HBO at present gearing up for the premiere of their Final of Us collection primarily based on the primary recreation, we now have affirmation that also they are planning to adapt the sequel targeted on Ellie.
This was confirmed through a synopsis in Empire Journal (through @DomTheBomb):
With the collection planning to cowl Left Behind and develop on some components from the primary recreation, I’ve a sense that the present gained’t have the ability to cowl the whole thing of Half I, and can as an alternative go away some story from the sport to happen within the second season.
Since there’s a vital time bounce between Half I and Half II, I believe that Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann have deliberate to inject some extra story going down in between each video games, and that might represent one or two extra seasons. The entire take care of Abby will in all probability happen someday in Season 3 or 4.
Then once more, I’m simply speculating right here. What are the chances they do one thing fully totally different that no person may have even guessed?
For now, followers await the premiere of The Final of Us on HBO Max this coming Jan. 16, 2023. The Final of Us video games are at present playable for PlayStation 4|5.
