Fans of The Last of Us may already have a date to mark on their calendars for the Season 2 premiere.
HBO recently confirmed that Season 2 would premiere in April, but the exact date had not been announced. However, some fans believe they have figured it out.
According to an analysis by @TheLastofUsNews on X, it’s likely that The Last of Us Season 2 will premiere on Sunday, April 13th.
The reasoning behind this prediction comes from the schedule of another HBO show, The White Lotus.
Season 3 of The White Lotus is set to air its final episode on April 6th, leaving a potential slot for The Last of Us to take over the following Sunday.
Historically, HBO has aired its biggest shows on Sundays, so it makes sense for The Last of Us to premiere on April 13th, just one week after The White Lotus wraps up.
This timing would also allow for a smooth transition between the two shows without any gaps in programming. The other possible dates for the premiere are April 20th and 27th, but April 13th seems the most likely.
If this prediction is correct, fans can expect the official announcement from HBO soon. What is confirmed, however, is that The Last of Us Season 2 will be shorter than the first, with only seven episodes in total.
