The Last of Us season 2 release date revealed with new Ellie, Abby, and Joel character posters teasing "every path has a price"

The Last of Us season 2 has an official release date - and is celebrating with three new character posters that tease what is quite possibly the season's biggest and most crucial event.

Firstly, season 2 of the critically acclaimed HBO show is set to hit Max on April 13, 2025. Secondly, the streamer has released new character posters of Joel (Pedro Pascal), Ellie (Bella Ramsey), and antihero Abby (Kaitlyn Dever) each with the caption, "Every path has a price."

In the posters, which you can check out below, Ellie is standing on a guitar - indicative of her new life as an adult with her partner Dina (Isabela Merced). Abby is standing on the logo of the Washington Liberation Front, her lethal group, and Joel is standing on a broken clock because, uh, time is of the essence. And that's all we'll say in case you haven't played The Last of Us Part 2.
