CES 2025: Sony Just Announced When the Last of Us Season 2 Will Release
As far as I’m concerned, Sony may have won CES and the show hasn’t even officially started yet.
The company made a number of announcements during its big media event at CES, including pricing and availability of its highly anticipated AFEELA vehicle (a joint partnership with Honda). But it was the last announcement of the evening that particularly caught my attention and excitement.
Sony surprised us all by inviting Neil Druckmann, head of Naughty Dog, to the stage. Druckmann mentioned the studio’s upcoming space adventure game The Intergalactic , but then revealed that the company has one small announcement.
Season 2 of The Last of Us will be released in April
As you might expect after Neil Druckmann’s CES keynote, Sony has unveiled a new teaser for The Last of Us Season 2. Of course, there’s fresh footage we didn’t see in the season’s first trailer, as well as intriguing snippets of performances from Pedro Pascal, Bella Ramsey, Kaitlyn Dever and Gabriel Luna. I don’t want to spoil the story for those who haven’t played The Last of Us Part II , but if you’re a fan of the first season, you’re in for a ride.
However, the teaser ended with the biggest announcement of all of CES: Season 2 will launch in April.
Sony hasn’t announced an exact April release date, but there’s more information than there was before, and I’m here for it. I will be watching this teaser on repeat until the show airs.
Sony is turning more of its games into shows and movies
In addition to the second season of The Last of Us , Sony has also announced an anime Ghost of Tsushima , a film adaptation of Helldivers 2 , as well as a feature film Horizon Zero Dawn , but the latter is only in the early stages of development.
Sony is clearly doing their best to adapt their IP, and I don’t blame them. The company touted the box office success of its Uncharted film and noted that it was proud of other adaptations such as Grand Turismo , Twisted Metal and, of course, The Last of Us . The company also reminded audiences of its upcoming film adaptation of Until Dawn by showing a video filmed with actor Peter Stormare to promote it.
