In Season 2 of The Last of Us, viewers are introduced to Stalkers, a new type of infected that demonstrate advanced hunting behaviors. Unlike traditional infected, Stalkers possess retained brain functions allowing them to strategize and ambush humans. The show's depiction highlights their eerie sounds and cunning tactics, as they can hide and coordinate attacks like humans. This evolution of infected adds a new layer of danger, especially during a tense encounter between Ellie and a Stalker in an abandoned grocery store, emphasizing the survival theme of the series.
"It's kept certain parts of their brain alive, so they are smarter. They coordinate and hide and do things that we've never seen any other infected do on this show."
"Stalkers are dangerous in the game because part of their brain is still alive: They won't just run directly at a human, instead opting to hunt their prey very similarly to how humans - like Ellie and Dina - hunt infected."
