The game begins with the player taking control of a girl named Sarah as she gives a birthday present to her father Joel. Soon enough, the Cordyceps outbreak goes into full effect and people are scrambling for their lives while individuals gone mad with infection run rampant. The military arrives to "take care of" the situation, and during the chaos, Sarah is fatally shot by a soldier and dies in the arms of Joel. That traumatic experience will influence some important decisions he makes much later in the game.


Cut to 20 years later, and the US is now a collection of military zones under martial law. The rest of the country - and likely the world - is covered with Clickers or small groups of survivors fending for themselves. Joel is living a rough life as a smuggler doing dirty jobs with a woman named Tess. They're given an offer by another woman named Marlene, who is the leader of a group of anti-military freedom fighters known as the Fireflies who are searching for a cure to the Cordyceps fungus. She wants them to smuggle a teenage girl out of the quarantine zone. That girl is Ellie.
