here are my theories on the locations + plot levels!! beware of very minor spoiler #nancydrewtlou2

these are the locations via seasons predicted!! if it follows the chronological seasonal pattern of the first game, pt.ii will start in winter and end in fall #nancydrewtlou2

these are ellie’s outfits for each season (remember that the trailer footage might change her outfits to prevent predictions!!) #nancydrewtlou2

PROLOGUE - the game begins with joel and tommy recapping the first game + horseback into jackson; concept art looks similar so it might be this scene!! #nancydrewtlou2

WINTER - includes the patrol chapter, ellie/dina scene, THAT CABIN SCENE, tommy/ellie scene and a couple more we’ve seen #nancydrewtlou2

is anyone else extremely excited for this particular scene? imagine being able to go inside those village shops and buy deer meat and lesbian keychains... we’d love to see it #nancydrewtlou2

WINTER/SPRING - in this scene from the reveal date trailer, it shows ellie in “bank of meridian”; this makes sense bc meridian, id is between jackson and seattle!! (could take place between winter/spring) since it’s not in seattle #nancydrewtlou2

SPRING/SEATTLE ‘DAY 1’ - ellie and dina will arrive at the ‘gate’ and this chapter will be extremely openworld-like!! it’s proven and shown in the state of play as well #nancydrewtlou2

+concept art: some more scenes from this chapter (yes, we will be buying the gorgeous artbook and supporting nd)

SEATTLE ‘DAY 2’ - ellie will be captured by the WLF soldiers as well as dina? this part is hard to assume where it happens but it will happen lol #nancydrewtlou2

**here is a MASTERMAP of the confirmed locations for the later seattle portions of the game from demo/trailer footage!! (my best work) #nancydrewtlou2

^note that the distances are approximate and the hospital we see from the state of play is FICTIONAL!! #nancydrewtlou2

SEATTLE ‘DAY 3’ - ellie will travel by boat to get to the WLF where she interrogates them on where **** is / maybe rescuing dina (this could take place at the aquarium near the ferris wheel in the pic) #nancydrewtlou2

those who took theatre in hs like me will love this: ellie + her friends will take refuge in seattle’s paramount theater (or some theater in seattle) - leaked footage found from video game articles so i think it’s safe for me to post this...

++ confirmed that ellie will arrive at the aquarium - this may all take place at the aquarium since the fight between the girl and ellie looks to be outside? #nancydrewtlou2

some more footage from state of play that showcases areas/locations we’ve never seen #nancydrewtlou2

here are some more confirmed locations for seattle theorized by other fans and myself!! (there will be a pinball museum in the game i-) #nancydrewtlou2

SUMMER - this seems to take place later on since ellie switches her clothes in these scenes + more summery (NOTE: THE MAN IN THIS SCENE IS NOT TOMMY BUT MOST LIKELY JESSE @ HALLEY GROSS) #nancydrewtlou2

**reminder: dina/jesse will most likely be kidnapped - in demo footage we see both ellie with dina and jesse as their companions yet both are never present with her

it’s possible jesse is captured, dina and ellie rescue him, jesse leaves the mission (hence “i really hope you make it”) during SPRING, dina is captured, jesse returns (hence “what the hell are you doing here”) during SUMMER #nancydrewtlou2

thoughts are being thunk... #nancydrewtlou2

FALL - no footage has been officially shown but it is confirmed (through L/EAKS) that it will take place in santa barbara and the chapter before it will include a farm scene. i can’t show the pics bc we ain’t risking ND suing us lmao #nancydrewtlou2

there is still A LOT we don’t know within the plot elements + locations so if you’ve been leaked, don’t feel discouraged! here are a couple scenes we haven’t gotten much info on: #nancydrewtlou2

here’s some more scenes we haven’t seen in any previous trailers/demos! i hope yall enjoyed this thread and i’ll be adding when there’s more content #nancydrewtlou2
