You’re gonna want to watch The Last of Us episode 5 online as soon as you can. And the good news is that it’s dropping earlier than usual (on HBO Max that is, not linear HBO), because not even one of the biggest and best new shows of the year wants to compete with the Super Bowl 2023 live streams.
U.S. date and time: The Last of Us episode 5 drops on Friday (Feb. 10) at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on HBO Max (opens in new tab).
The Last of Us U.K. release date: Saturday (Feb. 11) at 2 a.m. GMT on Sky Atlantic and NOW.
The Last of Us AU release date: Saturday (Feb. 11) at 1 p.m. AEDT on Binge (opens in new tab) and Foxtel Now (opens in new tab).
This episode — not to spoil anything, though we have seen it — will follow Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey) still on the run in Kansas City. At the end of the last episode, they were held up by young Sam (Keivonn Woodard).
In the below trailer, we see Sam’s older brother Henry (Lamar Johnson) talking to Henry via sign language. The Last of Us game creator Neil Druckmann told The Washington Post (opens in new tab), “One of the changes that we made for the TV show is we made Sam deaf … That kind of constraint led to really interesting storytelling decisions that, in some ways, make that sequence more impactful than it is in the game.”
Sam and Henry appear to be hiding out from the ruthless Kathleen (Melanie Lynskey), who seems to have her reasons for being kinda evil. Check out our The Last of Us episode 4 recap and review for all the details on that.
That said, you might want to check out the trailer (HBO’s already confirmed The Last of Us season 2, by the way). Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch The Last of Us episode 5, no matter where you are.
