The Last of Us is set 20 years after the Cordyceps fungal infection has taken over the world. We join Joel, a smuggler who has the dangerous task of escorting 14-year old Ellie across a ravaged and dishevelled United States. On their journey they encounter many hardships, hunters and of course – the infected.

First Impressions
The show looks to stay true to the tone of the video games, with dreary landscapes, familiar locations, and tense-filled environments. We got a first look at Clickers in the trailer, and they look as terrifying as ever. I always gets hesitant when video games are made into tv shows or films, but any doubts I had before watching this trailer was squashed.
