Does Tommy Die in The Last of Us Part II?
In the events of TLOU2, Tommy is shot horribly during the skirmish between Abby and Ellie, and is initially presumed dead. Once the game jumps forward in time we learn that Tommy is actually still alive, albeit disfigured from the traumatic events of the past and even missing an eye. Following events see Tommy become obsessed with tracking down and hunting Abby, which puts enormous strain on his relationships as he becomes increasingly withdrawn with a singular focus. But he does look to tell Ellie the news regarding Abby’s whereabouts.
