This is some exciting news for fans of this game series as a possible The Last of Us Part 3 has just been teased. In the latest documentary from Naughty Dog titled Grounded II: Making The Last Of Us Part II, Neil Druckmann gave an interesting quote and teaser at the end. He stated that “…it does feel like there’s probably one more chapter to this story.” Check out more of what he said in the documentary below.
Neil Druckmann stated in the documentary “The great thing about working at Naughty Dog is that we don’t have to. “It’s always like, ‘we would love another Last of Us, but if you guys feel you’re passionate about something else, we’ll support this other thing.’ Very privileged position to be in, I never take that for granted. I’ve been just thinking about it, ‘is there a concept there?’ And for now years, I haven’t been able to find that concept. But recently, that’s changed, and I don’t have a story, but I do have that concept that to me is as exciting as 1, as exciting as 2, is its own thing, and yet has this throughline for all three. So it does feel like there’s probably one more chapter to this story.”
The Last of Us first came out in 2013 and became the biggest video game launch at the time. The game sold over 1.3M units and became the best-selling digital release on the PlayStation store on the PlayStation 3 only to be beat out by Grand Theft Auto V later that year. With such a huge success, a sequel was bound to be developed and The Last of Us Part 2 was released in 2020. The sequel was an even better success selling over 2.8M units in just its first month. It went on to become one of the best-selling PlayStation exclusive launches of all time.
The games follow the storyline of “The post-apocalyptic United States where survivors Joel and Ellie work together to survive their westward journey across what remains of the country to find a possible cure for the modern fungal plague that has nearly decimated the entire human race.“
