Naughty Dog Confirms Multiple Last of Us Projects Are Currently in Development
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Naughty Dog has confirmed that multiple projects set within The Last of Us universe are currently in development, keeping future plans for the franchise alive as the studio focuses on other titles.
Naughty Dog is far from finished with its flagship post-apocalyptic franchise. In a recent interview with The Washington Post spotted by Game Rant, studio co-president Neil Druckmann confirmed that multiple projects related to The Last of Us are currently in the works, though the team is keeping specific details under wraps until the timing is right.
While Druckmann did not specify whether these upcoming projects are traditional video games or other media extensions, the announcement has naturally sparked heavy speculation across the community. Rumors have long persisted about a potential third mainline entry following the conclusion of their current new IP, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, alongside curiosity over whether abandoned multiplayer concepts might find new life. Meanwhile, the television adaptation continues to move forward at HBO, though Druckmann noted that Naughty Dog is no longer directly involved with the production of the show's upcoming third season.
For a community that has followed Ellie and Joel's journey across console generations, remasters, and streaming screens, this update keeps the franchise firmly on the radar. Given Naughty Dog's current production focus on their upcoming sci-fi title, concrete reveals for these new Last of Us projects are likely a ways off. However, knowing that the studio has active plans for the universe ensures that the conversation among players and creators will continue for a long time.
