Who is Abby, the new character of ‘The Last of Us’?

From here, there will be spoilers for the events of the video game, which could be reflected in the HBO adaptation. So proceed with caution. Some fans claim to have noticed Abby’s presence at the end of ‘The Last of Us’ series, and the creators have neither confirmed nor denied this theory, which may indicate that they may return to clarify it in the future.

Abby is a soldier in the Washington Liberation Front, an organization featured in the second game. She is the daughter of the doctor who was about to perform the operation on Ellie at the end of the storyline, and who is killed by Joel. Clearly, now her mission in her life is to train enough to complete her revenge against those who took away what she wanted most in life.

Without a doubt, Abby’s presence is one that needs to be celebrated in the second season of the series, as she is the trigger for the main storyline, and for which Ellie has to prove herself again. Currently, season 2 is believed to kick off later this year, with the goal being to debut sometime in 2024 or 2025.
