An inside source claims that Neil Druckmann is in charge of developing The Last of Us 3 at Naughty Dog. Both of the entries in The Last of Us’ first two installments were commercial successes for Naughty Dog as well as PlayStation, generating millions of units and receiving high marks from critics.
The Last of Us has been so successful that it will be the subject of a Miniseries set to debut in the first month of 2023. Observer of Leaks Anon has already leaked information about the upcoming The Last of Us TV show, including the casting of Ellie game actor Ashley Johnson as Anna, and now they have information on the video game franchise in the horror genre.
According to ViewerAnon, Neil Druckmann’s upcoming project will be The Last of Us 3, and production on the project is underway at Naughty Dog. Naughty Dog, as well as Sony, are reportedly developing a third The Last of Us game, which is not surprising given the series’ unprecedented popularity. Regrettably, ViewerAnon did not go on to provide any more information on the undertaking.
Naughty Dog is working on The Last of Us 3, but that doesn’t guarantee it will be the company’s upcoming release. In reality, a Last of Us multiplayer experience is already in development. The Last of Us multiplayer title is currently under development as a separate project from The Last of Us 2. There is currently no word on when The Last of Us multiplayer game will be launched, but it stands to reason that it will be Naughty Dog’s next title.
Rumor has it that Naughty Dog is also hard at work on an entirely separate game. For some time now, reports have circulated that Naughty Dog is developing a science fiction/steampunk game titled Stray’s Cross. Although no official word has been given on this development as of this posting, it seems reasonable to assume that it would come before The Last of Us 3 if it is in development.
Naughty Dog’s launch cycle for fresh titles has been constant, occurring every couple of years. With The Last of Us 2 has been out for two years, the upcoming title from the developer is likely coming out next year, but players will be required to wait for official word.
