The Last of Us series: considered The Best Video Game Adaptation on TV

Did you know that HBO’s The Last of Us is the live-action series best-rated among fans? Recent information indicates that it is the most successful adaptation. It has the highest average rating on websites like Rottentomatoes, Gameshub, and Google. Also, the video game on IMDb has a 9.7 score, while the HBO show has a 9.1 score.

We know that cinematographic and TV adaptations for other media products are something very common. Nevertheless, video game adaptations have never been as good as expected. But, The Last of Us is definitely one of the exceptions.

Besides, a previous study found that The Last of Us series topped the list for the most-searched TV show adapted from a video game. This series was released in January and has registered more than 300,000 monthly searches. This number would put it above other productions such as Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Halo, and Sonic.

Likewise, The Witcher series can be considered highly well-evaluated on the websites mentioned. However, even so, it was not able to surpass 81%. The value is slightly below the obtained by The Last of Us, showing that the achievement of the series that premiered on HBO Max is quite relevant.

Will there be a second season of The Last of Us series?

People were asking and discussing the future of the series and its second season of this apocalyptic drama. Gamers and fans of the video game believe that the series will explore both parts of the game.

HBO has not announced an official release date for the second season yet. But show creators Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann explained that they were expecting to start production of the second season before the end of 2023. Also, some members of the cast talked a little bit about it.
