It's official, The Last of Us has been renewed for season 2! While it seemed likely this would happen anyway, this news broke just a few days after the 2nd episode aired. The Last of Us is also HBO's second most popular series premiere in over 10 years, bringing in a whopping 4.7 million viewers on the first day, and eventually reaching 22 million within 2 weeks (that's a lot of viewers!)

With a 9 episode 1st season that will stay faithful to the game, season 2 will more than likely follow suit. Of course, there's already a few differences between the game and tv series so far that fleshes the characters and world a bit more, so we'll likely see similiar with season 2.
As someone who has played both games numerous times, I can't wait to see these characters even more fleshed out, and the world they live in.
