In the gaming world, few franchises are as beloved as Naughty Dog’s “The Last of Us.” Since its original release, fans have been yearning for more entries in the hauntingly beautiful series. However, if you’ve been eagerly anticipating a third installment, series creator Neil Druckmann has made a statement that may quell those hopes.

In a candid interview with Variety, Druckmann discussed the future of “The Last of Us,” coinciding with the ongoing success of its television adaptation. When pressed about the possibility of “The Last of Us Part 3,” Druckmann sighed and advised, “Don’t bet on there being more of ‘Last of Us.’ This could be it.”

While his response leaves room for interpretation, it’s clear that Naughty Dog’s current focus is elsewhere. The studio is deeply immersed in the development of “Intergalactic,” a new space-themed adventure announced at last year’s Game Awards. Given the scale of such a project, there’s scant time—or priority—left for revisiting a new installment of “The Last of Us.”

But as many industry veterans know, a developer’s plans can evolve with time. Is Druckmann playing coy, merely teasing fans, or firmly putting an end to the possibility of Part 3? It remains a tantalizing mystery.

Fans looking to dive deeper into this apocalyptic world still have the television series to satiate their appetites. As the second season prepares to premiere on April 13 on Max, anticipation is high. And, according to hints from HBO executives, we might be in for up to four seasons in total.

Whether or not “The Last of Us” returns to our consoles remains uncertain, but its legacy continues to morph and inspire. For now, fans can enjoy the unfolding tale on screen while speculating about what might—or might not—be next.
