The HBO Max series The Last of Us hits home more than fans expected. Based on the video game, The Last of Us chronicles the story of Joel (Pedro Pascal). He smuggles a special girl across the country in a post-apocalyptic world in 2023. The timeline of The Last of Us was changed from the original game storyline for a reason by creator Craig Marzin to give it a more realistic effect.

Joel and his family saw the outbreak of the virus in 2003

One of the biggest storyline elements of The Last of Us video game is when the chaotic events occur. The games had the outbreak occur in 2013 before there was a big time jump to over a decade later when the world drastically changed post-pandemic. In The Last of Us, the outbreak occurs 10 years earlier than in video games.
