We are still waiting for the first season to wrap up as writing, so we have to wait and see what the second season of the series will be about, but we do know that season two will be set four years after the events in season one.

In an interview with IGN, series co-creator Craig Mazin revealed that they thought it would be best to distribute the action between the seasons. With this in mind, it may mean that season two will only include a few of the important points of the game, with the rest potentially being covered in a new season. This was the solution they came up with as a compromise, because of how wide the gameplay and plots were.

Will there be a The Last of Us Season 3?

Fans are hopeful that the series will be renewed for a third series, though it may still depend on how the second season performs.

Will The Last of Us cover the plot of the whole game?

The Hollywood Reporter releases an article saying that the first season of The Last of Us will be covering the entire plot of the first game, introducing us into the universe.
