This is the first time we're hearing of a potential threequel to The Last of Us, and it's telling that it comes on the same day Druckmann shared new concept art for the multiplayer spin-off as well as just weeks following rumors that Naughty Dog is working on The Last of Us Part 3. Judging from what we've been hearing lately, if Naughty Dog started development on The Last of Us Part 3 today, it would likely have to be for the PlayStation 6. Speaking to THR as part of his ongoing press tour for HBO's The Last of Us, which hits HBO Max and HBO on January 15, Druckmman shared that 'there's more story to tell' in regards to the video game side of the multimedia franchise. Thus, fans are still curious to find out if Naughty Dog still has the resources to devote to a threequel, especially with HBO's The Last of Us expected to last at least a couple of seasons. Although a new The Last of Us game is technically in development, the multiplayer spin-off isn't a follow-up. It would be a reasonable expectation then that Naughty Dog will revisit it at some point. We'd definitely be curious to find out what kind of story The Last of Us Part 3 will tell.ĭespite being barely a decade old and two games deep, The Last of Us is one of the best-selling video game franchises in history with more than 30 million units sold. Neil Druckmann might have just finally confirmed that The Last of Us Part 3 is already in the works over at Naughty Dog.
