It presents a way more detailed take a look at the hazards the 2 come throughout when in comparison with the earlier teaser, together with a quick glimpse on the contaminated themselves.

Like the PlayStation recreation of the identical title, the sequence has Joel escorting Ellie, who’s proof against the fungus, throughout the nation in hopes of discovering a remedy for the outbreak.
