Naughty Dog Clarifies News on The Last Of Us Sequel

“I can say that was kind of a surprise for us for him to say that”, he told OPM as reported by Games Radar.

He explained that the studio was building a prototype for The Last of Us 2, as they were workshopping other ideas. “So, I guess Nolan North was kind of right in that we were working on stuff, but we don’t know what we’re doing next and we won’t know until probably a few months after we finish Uncharted 4“.

And while Naughty Dog has yet to confirm “The Last of Us 2“, there are already suggestions as to how the game’s sequel could materialize.

Before A Thief’s End arrives, gamers will be able to play the previous three titles in the franchise on the PlayStation 4, with the Nathan Drake Collection set to be launched on October 7 in North America and two days later in Europe.

“All the facial animation in the “Uncharted” series was led up by Eric, here”, he claimed, giving an idea for some fans the possibility of a second installation of the game. And just last week, fans really went into a tizzy when writer Josh Scherr filled a livestream with the words “the first The Last of Us“, before proceeding to stumble over himself as he realized what he had just spurted out.

An interview with Naughty Dog creative director Neil Druckmann has given some clarity to all the Last of Us sequel speculations and rumors. The game ended so perfectly that a sequel seems like it may ruin some of the charm by exploring what happens to Joel and Ellie after the events of the first game. Uncharted 4 is slated as one of the PlayStation 4’s very biggest exclusives for next year.

Naughty Dog has recently commented on the themes and messages that will be featured within the story of the upcoming game Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End.

What made things more confusing was that the following day, another voice actor, Troy Baker, denied any knowledge of the existence of “The Last of Us 2″.
