The Last Of Us season 2 episode 3 takes us to the aftermath of certain events from episode 2 which I'm not going to spoil which is bound to shake up the status quo for surviving characters.
This second season of The Last of Us is proving just as bloody and action-packed as the first, which is no surprise given what happened in the video game it's an adaptation of: The Last Of Us Part II.
So here's how to watch The Last of Us season 2 episode 3 on TV and online – it airs on Sunday, April 27 in the US and on Monday, April 28 in the UK and Australia.
How to watch The Last of Us S2 E3 in the US
You can watch the second episode of The Last Of Us season 2 episode 3 in two ways: online or using a cable plan.
Starting with the latter, you can watch The Last Of Us season 2 episode 3 on HBO or HBO Latino channels. Ep. 3 will be released on Sunday, April 27 at 9 pm ET/6 pm PT. The episode will be repeated countless times over the next few days at varying times, including thrice back-to-back from midnight the next day.
A few live TV streaming services let you purchase HBO as an add-on package if you don't have it already. The list includes Sling TV, DirecTV and YouTube TV, with it available if you pay a little extra per month. Of those Sling TV is the cheapest with its plans beginning at $45 per month.
To stream The Last Of Us season 2 episode 3 on demand, you can sign up to Max where it'll appear as soon as it airs on HBO, joining all the previous episodes.
Max costs $9.99 per month for its basic tier or $16.99 per month for its ad-free one. There's another higher tier but it's for high-res movie streaming so it won't affect The Last Of Us.
How to watch The Last Of Us S2 E3 in the UK
There are two ways to watch The Last Of Us season 2 episode 3 in the UK, both of which start on Monday, April 28.
Firstly, to watch it on live TV, Sky Atlantic will air the episode at 2 am... bright and early! If you value your sleep ahead of the first day of the working week, it'll repeat at 9 pm that evening.
Then to watch it on demand, the episode of The Last Of Us will be available as part of Sky TV's and Now's libraries as soon as it airs on Sky TV.
You can watch it on Sky Atlantic or Sky TV's library if you subscribe to Sky. This costs £15 per month (with the occasional free trial or discount thanks to Sky TV deals) for its Essential tier, and this is the only one you need to watch The Last Of Us season 2 episode 3.
Now costs £9.99 per month so it's a bit cheaper but doesn't offer Sky TV's live channels, so deciding between the two is as much about which other parts of the subscription you're interested in, as much as the price.
How to watch The Last Of Us S2 E3 in Australia
Forget however you watched The Last Of Us or other HBO TV series before: in Australia, The Last Of Us season 2 will stream on Max.
This is a new streaming service as of the beginning of April, when it launched in Australia.
The Last of Us season 2 episode 3 will hit Max on Monday, April 28 which, given time zones, is more-or-less when it lands in the US too.
Max costs $11.99 per month or $119.99 per year for its basic plan, which includes adverts, and it launched with a few other tiers too. As a note, if you sign up before Wednesday, April 31, each tier is $4 per month or $40 per year cheaper.
