The Last of Us season two, episode one, will be available on HBO and to stream on Max on April 13, 2025. New episodes of The Last of Us season two will air on HBO and Max each Sunday through May 25, 2025.

The first season, which debuted in early 2023, depicts a world where the mind-controlling parasitic fungi Cordyceps takes over the human race and reshapes society at large. The story followed smuggler Joel (Pedro Pascal) who safeguards Ellie (Bella Ramsey) across the country to a hospital as she is immune from becoming "infected.

The Last of Us season 2 finally premiered its first episode, “Future Days,” on Sunday, April 13, and with plenty of parent/child tension, a scary stalker attack and a vengeful new character, we could not be more excited about the return of HBO's series.
