It’s no surprise that The Last of Us television series, which streams on HBO Max, was a hit.

After all the video game franchise it’s based on has been massively popular since the original title launch just a decade ago.

As for the series itself, it has managed to become the second most popular series on the HBO Max streaming service. As a season, it’s third best behind only the final two seasons of Game of Thrones.

Again this is no surprise given the reception of the series when it aired, but it’s also all the more reason as to why a second season for the series has already been greenlit. However, it’s not expected to air anytime soon, with a planned release window being late 2024 to early 2025.

Until then, fans can enjoy the remake of the original with The Last of Us Part 1. However for those preferring PC, the PC port did launch with numerous performance issues that continue to plague it as of this writing.
