Players use firearms and improvised weapons and can use stealth to defend against hostile humans and cannibalistic creatures infected by a mutated fungus in the genus Cordyceps.
The post-apocalyptic drama television series is created by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann for HBO. Apart from Pascal and Ramsey, the series will also feature Gabriel Luna as Joel's younger brother Tommy, Merle Dandridge as resistance leader Marlene, and Anna Torv as Joel's smuggler partner Tess.
Furthermore, the first season will consist of nine episodes written by Mazin and Druckmann; the latter wrote and directed the game.
