In fact, it’s not even certain there will be a Last of Us 3. Druckmann said he hopes it can “one day can see the light of day. We’ll see.”
It seems there are quite a few strings attached to a potential third Last of Us game. Druckmann also mentioned the team would have to work out how the game could stay within the framework the first two developed.
He said:
Of course, Naughty Dog has other games they want to make as well. Rumors from Bloomberg suggest they have the freedom to do it too, with other studios brought in to work on remastering older Naughty Dog games to free up resources for Druckmann’s team.
With The Last of Us HBO show in the works, though, we’d be surprised if this was the last we saw of The Last of Us.
