Besides Pedro Pascal and Bela Ramsay, we can see or find Gabriel Luna (Tommy), Rutina Wesley (Maria), Caitlin Dever (Abby), Young Mazino (Jesse), Isabella Merced (Dina), Danny Ramirez (Manny). Greg DeGuire, Danny Ramirez (Emmanuel “Manny” Alvarez), Ariella Baer (Mel), Tati Gabriel (Nora) and Spencer Lord (Owen).

Four years after the first opus, an unfortunate event occurs, which deeply upsets Eli. He then embarks on a quest for revenge that will change him forever…“
Launched in 2020, it is the most awarded video game in history. The series will have to live up to that.
