AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Naughty Dog is teasing new collaborations and partnership announcements for The Last of Us Day on September 28, while HBO rounds out the cast for the show's third season.
The Last of Us community has a reason to pay close attention to the calendar as Naughty Dog gears up for its annual September 28 celebration, known in the universe as the day the outbreak began. A fresh update to the PlayStation Welcome Hub on PS5 dropped a dynamic background featuring Ellie, accompanied by studio hints regarding a new partnership announcement and a cool collaboration. While specific details remain under wraps, the tease arrives at a time when the broader future of the franchise on consoles has felt somewhat uncertain, especially following the cancellation of Naughty Dog's standalone multiplayer project and the recent halt of a high profile fan made multiplayer mod for Part 2.
At the same time, the broader multimedia footprint of the franchise continues to expand. HBO recently announced three new cast members joining the third season of the television adaptation, including notable casting choices like Laura Bailey and Ian Alexander, who previously brought characters to life in the second game, alongside the addition of John Goodman. This blend of television updates and potential game franchise news gives players plenty to discuss as the community awaits official word on what Naughty Dog plans next for the narrative universe.
