Is There Still a Chance for The Last of Us 3?

Fans of The Last of Us series were still reeling from Neil Druckmann's recent statement suggesting that a new game might not be on the horizon when a ray of hope emerged. Insider Daniel Richtman has sparked excitement by claiming that the next installment is not only in development but has already cast its actors, with some scenes reportedly filmed.

Given the somewhat ambiguous nature of Druckmann's earlier comments, these rumors might carry some weight. When Druckmann mentioned there would be "no next The Last of Us", he could have been alluding to an already-in-development sequel. It's worth noting that Druckmann has made similar statements in the past, right before the announcement of Part II. However, it's important to approach Richtman's leaks with caution, as he has a history of inaccuracies.

Nevertheless, it is confirmed that a concept for the new installment does exist. As for any official announcements or further news, Naughty Dog might be holding back to keep the spotlight on their upcoming new IP, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
