HBO is finally releasing one of their most anticipated series of all time in the new year. After years of planning an adaptation of the beloved video game The Last of Us, the series will finally be unveiled next month. HBO also has more episodes of Gossip Girl, Game Theory with Bomani Jones, and more in the upcoming month.

The premier streamer is starting out the new year strong with The Last of Us, which will start airing weekly on Jan. 15. Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey lead the adaptation as Joel and Ellie, respectively, who have to make it across the country in a post-apocalyptic society. Start playing the OG video game ASAP if you want to catch up on the story before the release.

Gossip Girl will also continue rolling out new episodes of its sophomore season on the platform. Will Monet reign queen of the Upper East Side? Or will Julien take over once again? See what’s in store for the cutthroat teens when new episodes are released on HBO Max every Thursday.

Finally, Game Theory with Bomani Jones will return for a second season on HBO and HBO Max. Season 2 premieres Jan. 20, with new episodes coming every Friday. See what’s up in the world of sports with the Emmy-winning journalist when the show returns
