Maybe it’s time to let Ellie rest (Sony)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

While the TV show still has at least one more season in it, it sounds like The Last Of Us<\/a> fans shouldn\u2019t hold their breath for any new games.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been commonly assumed that The Last Of Us Part 3 will be a thing at some point, especially after the series\u2019 notoriety ballooned thanks to the TV show and the last game ended on a relatively ambiguous note.<\/p>\n

However, series co-creator and creative director Neil Druckmann has flipped back and forth on the possibility and it’s been difficult to be tell whether he’s being honest or just coy.<\/p>\n

In 2021, Druckmann said he had an outline for a third game\u2019s plot<\/a>, but he seemed to have lost interest by 2023<\/a>, saying the sequel would only happen if it had a \u2018compelling\u2019 story. Then, in 2024, he said he had finally landed on an \u2018exciting\u2019 concept<\/a>, adding there was \u2018probably one more chapter to the story.\u2019<\/p>\n

Now, it appears Druckmann has flipped the other way again, going so far as to suggest that he and developer Naughty Dog are very much done with The Last Of Us altogether.<\/p>\n

Recently, Druckmann and his fellow executive producer on The Last Of Us TV show, Craig Mazin, sat down with Variety<\/a> to discuss the upcoming second season<\/a>, which will be adapting the storyline of The Last Of Us Part 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Naturally, the subject of The Last Of Us Part 3 was brought up, which Druckmann sounds tired of hearing about, given the big sigh he apparently let out in response.<\/p>\n

\u2018I was waiting for this question. I guess the only thing I would say is don\u2019t bet on there being more of Last Of Us. This could be it,\u2019 was all Druckmann said, implying not just that there\u2019ll never be a third game, but that there may be no new The Last Of Us games period.<\/p>\n
