There hasn’t been an official announcement from Naughty Dog about a third installment in the “Last of Us” series, but one leaker suggests that work on the project is already underway and has shared some potential details. It’s been five years since the release of the sequel to Naughty Dog’s acclaimed zombie game, and fans have been eagerly waiting for more news ever since. However, all official updates have focused on the TV adaptation and a new franchise, but it’s possible that “The Last of Us” could still have surprises in store for its dedicated fanbase.
As a die-hard fan of The Last of Us, I can’t help but reflect on the incredible success of Season One in the live-action TV show. Yet, the future of the game series is shrouded in uncertainty. After four years of dedicated work, Naughty Dog pulled the plug on The Last of Us Online. At present, they’re engrossed in a new project, the intriguing sci-fi title, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Despite this, it doesn’t mean that other teams aren’t secretly brewing something else. There’s a persistent rumor suggesting another installment of The Last of Us could be on its way.
In a post shared on Patreon (as reported by ComicBook.com), well-known industry insider Daniel Richtman hints that the casting for ‘The Last of Us Part 3’ has started. Richtman suggests that part of this game will center around a band of new characters living in an old Victorian house, battling against the infected. A conflict between two characters, Val and Mason, is rumored to unfold in this setting, potentially playing a significant role in the overall storyline. However, it remains uncertain whether this particular plot will be the main focus or merely part of a broader, intricate tale. Since ‘The Last of Us Part 2’ left some questions unanswered, fans are hoping that if ‘The Last of Us Part 3’ comes to fruition, it will delve into characters like Ellie and Abby. Interestingly, Richtman’s leaks have yet to touch upon these specific characters so far.
Rumors Claim Last of Us Part 3 Is Casting and Will Follow New Characters




Apart from Val and Mason, a leak hints at three more characters: Gracie, Ezra, and Lucas. It’s rumored that Lucas might develop a relationship with another character and undergo a troubling transformation. However, specifics about the story are vague, possibly because the casting process is just starting. If these leaks are correct, it implies that the game is probably still in its initial stages of creation, and changes to the script may occur. Keep in mind, there’s no certainty that a third installment of “The Last of Us” will materialize. The series creator Neil Druckmann has hinted at the television show being the end for the series, but he has also mentioned brainstorming ideas for a sequel in the past.
It seems that Naughty Dog is focusing on completing ‘The Last of Us Part 3’ at the moment, which means fans may have to wait a while for any official updates regarding the game. Neil Druckmann mentioned that ‘Intergalactic’, another project by the studio, still requires more development before it reaches completion. As such, it’s likely that Naughty Dog will concentrate on finishing ‘Intergalactic’ before they start sharing information about a possible third installment of ‘The Last of Us’.
