'The Last Of Us Part 2' Release Date, Spoilers, News & Update: Joel Is Dead? Other Theories Revealed!

After the release of "The Last Of Us Part 2" trailer, the game developer Naughty Dog left the story open for interpretation. Fans think they got the whole mystique of the story figured out. Rumor has it that the hotly anticipated game will give light to what happened to Joel.

The action, adventure, survival horror game "The Last Of Us Part 2" is back. After the release of its trailer in PSX last weekend, fans of the game franchise tried to piece up the puzzle. With only little information to work on, it did not stop the fans from formulating their own theories.

The teaser trailer of "The Last Of Us Part 2" featured a blood-splattered Ellie, who will be the game's playable character. She is strumming a sad song on a guitar she found in a bedroom after a confrontation with the previous house owners. A man walks into the room passing a trail of corpse, presumably killed by Ellie, approaches her revealing that he could be Joel.

The main theory that fans are going for is that Joel is dead at the start of the "The Last Of Us Part 2" and Ellie is only talking to a figment of her imagination, according to Polygon. Ellie's interaction with Joel is some kind of a coping mechanism and the trailer overall gave fans a "Sixth Sense" kind of feel.

Taking how the first part of "The Last Of Us Part 2" ended, it is suspected that Joel's end was in the hands of the Fireflies militia. Ellie is said to embark on a journey of revenge that is fueled by hatred.

Another theory, which is the most outrageous one, is that Joel committed suicide before the story of "The Last Of Us Part 2" begins. Some fans pointed out that when Joel enters the room where Ellie is, he is holding a revolver -- the same gun he used to end his life, according to reports.

For the time being, there is little information about "The Last Of Us Part 2". Fans can only rely on speculations until it will be released. Currently there is still no confirmed release date yet.
