We already knew that the seasonwouldn’t cover the whole of the second game– it’s a way bigger game and has far too many bases to cover for that to be remotely sensible. However, the amount of detail in that trailer might signal that it’s going to go even slower than many might assume.
The trailer gives us a clear idea of what Ellie and Joel’s lives will look like in their new, much safer home inside a rare walled-off community that manages to remain fairly self-sufficient.
This, along with most of the other scenes glimpsed, all come from relatively early parts of the game, which is the key takeaway here. There are two ways of looking at this – either the trailer is an unusually well-chosen tease that holds back almost everything from the second half of the season, or the show is really going to slow down and luxuriate in its smash-hit status.
That might mean that we get to spend a little more time than expected in the early throes of the story, as Ellie and her friends go on patrols, and the status of her relationship with Joel becomes a little clearer.

The biggest question, though, is around the huge twist – it’s coming one way or another, and it’ll be hugely interesting to see when in the series. We’ll keep that circumspect to avoid spoilers, but anyone who played the game knows what we mean.
The show isn’t back until 2025, though, so there’s plenty of time for speculation to keep spreading. It’ll be available on HBO and Max in the US, and Sky and the NOWstreaming servicein the UK.
