The Last of Us on HBO has impressed audiences since its debut, and as such, the thirst for new information about every episode is at a high. Based on the critically-acclaimed video game of the same name by Naughty Dog, fans are wondering exactly when they will be able to stream and watch the next one. Here is what we know about The Last of Us Episode 8, including its release date and time.
What is the release date and time for The Last of Us Episode 8 on HBO Max?
The Last of Us Episode 8 will remain in its regular slot, and will be released on HBO Max and broadcast on HBO in the United States on Sunday, March 5, 2023. In the U.K., the episode will air on Sky Atlantic, and be available to stream on NOW for those who have an Entertainment Pass, on Monday, March 6, 2023.
The local time at which you will be able to watch the new episode depends entirely on where you are in the world. With that in mind, here is the release time in various time zones:

- 8 p.m. Central Time

Episode 8 is called “When We Are in Need,” which could refer to the sticky situation Ellie and Joel continue to find themselves in. Desperately in need of some help moving forward on their journey, they will be hoping for somebody to step in and lend them aid, rather than taking advantage of their seemingly weak position.
Ali Abbasi steps in as director for this penultimate episode of Season 1, with The Last of Us co-creator Craig Mazin having written the eighth installment. As we move towards the conclusion of the first season, we should expect plenty of twists, turns, and suspense.
