The Last of Us Season 3 to Be Final Season, Focused on Abby
Season 3 will retell the Seattle days from Abby's perspective and cover the Santa Barbara epilogue, ending on a hopeful note.
HBO's The Last of Us will conclude with its third season, according to screenrant.com. The season will shift its main focus from Ellie to Abby and retell the Seattle days from Abby's perspective.
Season 3 will also cover the game's Santa Barbara epilogue and is set to end on a hopeful note, unlike the first two seasons.
The report follows the departure of Neil Druckmann, creator of the original games, who had served as co-showrunner. Craig Mazin remains on the series and has said he now plans to cover the remaining story in a single season rather than splitting it across multiple installments.
Mazin is also lined up to make a Baldur's Gate series for HBO.

The Last of Us first premiered on HBO on January 15, 2023, and ended its first season with Joel lying to Ellie about the Fireflies.
