When the first trailer for The Last of Us 2 dropped, fans went nuts trying to figure out who the dead men that littered the house were.

Lacking any visual signifiers that clued players in to their identities, the most popular theory was that they were Fireflies out for revenge after Joel wiped the majority of them out at the end of the previous game.

With the latest information in mind though, especially knowing that both trailers take place in Seattle, it's looking increasingly likely that Ellie's attackers belonged to the cult, and aren't stragglers from the first game's band of rebels.
