The Last Of Us: New Rumors Of A Part 3 Start To Emerge

The Last Of Us is a beloved franchise, and a Part 3 is inevitable. Both previous titles have been massive hits for Sony and Naughty Dog. Interests in the franchise spiked earlier this year as HBO Max and Neil Druckmann nailed the TV adaptation of TLOU Part 1. While developers at Naughty Dog have not officially confirmed TLOU Part 3, Neil Druckmann has stated he has a story outline that he wants to see come into the light. 

Possible Part 3 Leaks

Now, with recent leaks, the wheels may be finally turning for another installment in The Last Of Us universe. According to WeGotThisCovered.com, veteran leaker Daniel Richtman may have the inside scoop. Richman, who is known for his Marvel leaks has revealed some possible characters that appear to come from a casting sheet. These characters will be a group who has made their home base in an old Victorian house.

“Lucas, male, affable, but develops a relationship with another young scavenger and will have a turn to show his dark side. Mason, male, a former soldier. When Val gets put in charge, Mason must choose between his loyalty to Ezra and the house. Val, female, leader of the group. Ezra, male, wants to take the house from Val. Gracie, female, 10-25 (no other details on this character).” 

Do not expect any major changes in character focus. The leaks say that Ellie is just as much the main character as in The Last Of Us Part 2. Ellie will more than likely run into this group at some point. Knowing her luck it will be just as things start to fall apart. We all know how fast things can go wrong in this series. 

Ellie’s Story Will Continue

TLOU Part 2 began development in 2017 and was released in 2020. If Naughty Dog follows the same timeframe The Last Of Us Part 3 could be looking at a 2026 or 2027 release on the PS5. It is also a possibility that Sony would want Part 3 to be the PlayStation 6 launch title. 

As of right now, all we can do is wait for some official news on a possible The Last Of Us Part 3. There is also a multiplayer game set in the TLOU universe in development at Naughty Dog as we speak. We do not know a lot about this game but it is confirmed. So at least we have something to look forward to as we wait to hear how Ellie’s story will continue.
