The premiere date for The Last of Us Season 2 may have been uncovered ahead of an official announcement from HBO. HBO recently released a new trailer for Season 2, confirming an April release window. While a specific date hasn’t been given, fans believe they’ve deduced when the second season will debut.
According to @TheLastofUsNews on X, The Last of Us Season 2 is likely to premiere on Sunday, April 13th. This speculation stems from the scheduling of another HBO show, The White Lotus. Season 3 of The White Lotus premieres on February 16th and will air weekly until its finale on April 6th. With The White Lotus concluding on that date, it’s plausible that its time slot will be filled by The Last of Us the following week.

Given HBO’s typical scheduling practices, an April 13th premiere date for The Last of Us Season 2 aligns with their established patterns. HBO typically airs its flagship shows on Sundays, and with The White Lotus occupying that slot until April 6th, the remaining Sundays in April are the 13th, 20th, and 27th. A premiere on April 13th would allow HBO to seamlessly transition from one popular show to the next, maintaining consistent programming.

While the April 13th premiere date is currently speculation, it aligns logically with HBO’s programming strategy. Launching The Last of Us Season 2 on this date would capitalize on the audience built by The White Lotus and minimize any gaps in their Sunday night lineup.
If HBO does intend to launch The Last of Us Season 2 on April 13th, an official announcement should be forthcoming. One confirmed detail is that Season 2 will be shorter than the first, consisting of only seven episodes.
Conclusion
The potential April 13th premiere date for The Last of Us Season 2, while not officially confirmed, seems highly probable based on HBO’s scheduling trends and the conclusion of The White Lotus Season 3. Fans eagerly await official confirmation from HBO, anticipating the return of this acclaimed series.
