Safe to say The Last of Us has fans gripped, after a tense and emotional episode six.
The HBO series stars Pedro Pascal as smuggler Joel, and his Game of Thrones co-star Bella Ramsey as youngster Ellie, who embark on a journey through a post-apocalyptic America.
Set in 2023, Ellie is found to be immune to the Cordyceps fungus that has ravaged the human population for years – turning people into monster-esque creatures – and is the hope for a cure, meaning Joel must find a way to get her to the right people.
It’s based on the popular video game series, and the TV adaptation has been garnering stellar reviews (with a 97% score on Rotten Tomatoes).
So, how many episodes are left to watch? And when is the finale on?
How many episodes of The Last of Us are there?
Brace yourself for more, as there are nine episodes of The Last of Us in total.
So, as episode six has just aired in the UK, that means there are three more still to come.
Episode seven is the next to drop – which will reveal Joel’s fate after the sixth instalment’s nail-biting ending.
Tune in to Sky Atlantic for the next episode on Monday, February 27.
When is The Last of Us finale?
The finale of The Last of Us will air on Monday, March 12 in the UK, and Sunday, March 11 in the US.
The show airs in the States on Sundays, on HBO, but airs early Monday morning over here.
You can watch The Last of Us at 2am on Sky Atlantic or via streaming service NOW.
Membership to NOW costs £9.99 a month, with a subscription allowing people access to a variety of TV shows (including other Sky Atlantic programming). You can cancel at any time you’d like.
If you’ve got a pesky job – ugh! – and therefore can’t stay up or wake up for a 2am TV session on a Monday, don’t worry too much, as Sky Atlantic also airs The Last of Us at 9pm.
You can, of course, stream the episode at a different time on NOW once it has aired live.
The Last of US continues Mondays on Sky and NOW.
