Here's the official synopsis, in case it's been muddied for you over time since the first game.

Five years after their dangerous journey across the post-pandemic United States, Ellie and Joel have settled down in Jackson, Wyoming. Living amongst a thriving community of survivors has allowed them peace and stability, despite the constant threat of the infected and other, more desperate survivors. When a violent event disrupts that peace, Ellie embarks on a relentless journey to carry out justice and find closure. As she hunts those responsible one-by-one, she is confronted with the devastating physical and emotional repercussions of her actions.

The Last of Us Part 2 is set to debut on June 19th, 2020.
