The Last of Us: A Sneak Peek into Season 2 and More!

September 26th is like Christmas for fans of The Last of Us. Every year, Naughty Dog marks this day, now called The Last of Us Day (formerly known as Outbreak Day), with exciting surprises. For 2024, they’ve really upped the game by syncing the celebration with PlayStation’s 30th anniversary. And let me tell you, they’ve packed in a ton of goodies for us to enjoy!

Here’s the breakdown:

First up, fans are getting free PlayStation avatars! That’s right—Joel, Ellie, and a Clicker can now take center stage on your profile. And if you’re part of PlayStation Stars, there’s something extra spooky for you—a Clicker Digital Collectible to display. It’s a fun way to showcase your love for the series and add some character to your digital display case. 🎮👾

But it doesn’t stop there. Naughty Dog also dropped some big news: The Last of Us Part I Remake is now available on PlayStation Plus Extra! If you haven’t played the beautifully heartbreaking journey of Joel and Ellie (or if you just want to relive the trauma in 4K), this is your chance. Trust me, this is the version that’ll make you feel every moment, every scar, in jaw-dropping detail.

And now, the big one—HBO’s Season 2 teaser. Yes, it’s finally here. Fans have been waiting to see what the next season of the show has in store, and while the teaser doesn’t give everything away (they’re keeping us on the edge!), it’s enough to get the excitement flowing. If the first season had you hooked, get ready, because next year’s return is shaping up to be epic.

Sure, this year’s The Last of Us Day might not be the wildest one yet, but between the freebies, the PS Plus goodies, and that juicy trailer, it’s a celebration worth marking.

So, fire up that console, grab your merch from the PlayStation Gear Store (at a discount, no less), and settle in for the next chapter of the TLOU universe.
