Faithfully following the storyline of the original 2013 PS3 game and its Left Behind expansion, the first season also expands on the world with additional narrative elements. Showrunners Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann (a key creative force behind the games) penned the scripts.

Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey portray Joel and Ellie, respectively, with Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson (the game's Joel and Ellie) making appearances. The series faithfully recreates the journey of Joel escorting Ellie across a post-apocalyptic America ravaged by a fungal pandemic, where Ellie holds the key to humanity's survival.
