The Last of Us season 2's first footage was recently releases by the makers. The few-second clip already has fans excited for what's to come. Meanwhile, the gamers have been hinting at an emotionally devastating season 2.
The show follows Joel in a post-apocalyptic world as a mercenary who was tasked to deliver a package safely to save humanity. However, on coming in contact with the package, he discovers that he has been asking to safely bring a girl immune to the virus to an alleged haven. Over the course of season 1, Joel and Ellie travel through the country to bring her to the hospital in hopes of saving the world.
As they spend more time together Joel begins to look at her as his daughter. But when things don't go as planned Joel takes her to human sanctuary, where again Ellie is put in danger. To make sure his step-in daughter is saved Joel ends up having to make the wrong choices.
Season 2 will possibly see him deal with the consequences.
