For those without the time to replay this 2013 masterpiece, it's worth recalling these ten important plot points from the adventure before launching into The Last of Us Part II.🎃 It is difficult to say how many of these will directly play into the new game's plot, but it is at least helpful to remember th♌e backstory.

10 Sarah

Th൩e introduction sees the player controlling Sar𝕴ah, Joel's daughter, as the two of them try to survive the first night of the outbreak. They nearly make it until Sarah is tragically shot by a soldier ordered to kill people fleeing the city. This completely changes the course of Joel's life, as it would nearly anyone who lost a child.

9 Tess

After the✱ time jump, Joel is living and working with Tess. While it is never directly shown, a romantic relationship is heavily implied between the two. She is moꦇre eager to transport Ellie towards the Fireflies, and Joel ultimately continues the journey after her death as an obligation. She is bitten and forces the other two to go on without her. If it weren't for Tess' insistence, Joel might never have taken the job in the first place.

8 Bill

Bill is a survivor living outside of the quarantine zone whom Tess and Joel work with for supplies. He's also the first man Joel and Ellie visit to find a working car. After they head off, Bill is still by himself in the ♋town, set to continue his life alone.

He had a lover who recently tried to ditch him shortly before Joel and Ellie arrive. Perhaps Bill will show up in The Last of US Part II, assuming he is still alive.

7 🍬Ellie's Mom

Little is known about Ellie's mother other than her close relationship to Marlene. All signs point to her being dead, but it is never explicitly stated. In the Left Behind DLC, the players can ask Riley if Marlene said anything abouꦰt Ellie's mother in an optional conversation, but little is revealed in this moment.

6 Riley

At the end of The Last of Us, Ellie mentions her best friend Riley, and how the two were bitten together. Riley transmogrified while Ellie discovered her immunity. The Left Behind story expansion details the night this tragedy transpired. The two shared a kiss while spendin🌜g their last night together. Riley is gone, but surely the pair's relationship will echo through into the sequel, if only⭕ on an unspoken level.

5 Tommy

Joel's younger brother Tommy helps him and Sarah in the introduction. In the years following he has a falling out with Joel and has not seen him for years. Part of the rift comes from To🙈mmy's belief in the Fireflies while Joel is more cynical. Additionally, Joel apparently did some unspeakable things to help the🌟 two survive during the early years of the society's collapse. Upon reuniting, Tommy thinks the things he did for survival were not worth it.

4 ♓ Where Ellie Was Befo🐲re The Game

Ellie and Riley lived together in a military boarding school, which Ellie describes as being a nice word for an orphanage. The Left Behind campaign shines a little more 𒐪light on what life was like in the school. Rules appeared strict and much of the curriculum focused on survival. It is implied that both Riley and Ellie were sent there to ensure their safety growing up.

3 ꦉ ꧙ Tommy's Settlement

They even restored electricity, a feat they accomplished while the player explores ♑the nearby dam they brought back to a functioning state. At the end of the game, Joel and Ellie are returning here to start a new life.

2 Ellie's Immunity ✤

Ellie is so important because she is immune to the disease. Joel is tasked with bringing her to the Fireflies' headquarters so doctors can study her and potentially come up with a vaccine. Because of her immunity, she does not need to put on a gas mask when spores are in the air. One wonders if her curious condition will play a 💜role in the sequel.

1 The Ending ⛄

A vaccine can only be crafted if the doctors perform an operation on Ellie that will ultimately end her life. Joel cannot live with this idea, so he massacres all t𝓡he Fireflies in the building and breaks her out, also killing Marlene in the process. Ellie is already under anesthesia and only wakes up in the car afterwards, so he crafts a lie to explain why they left. The game ends with Ellie asking Joel to swear his story is true, to which he replies "I swear."
