Is There Still a Chance for The Last of Us 3?

Fans of *The Last of Us* series were still reeling from Neil Druckmann's recent statement suggesting that a new game might not be on the horizon when a sudden spark of hope emerged. Insider Daniel Richtman has stirred excitement by claiming that not only is the next installment in development, but it has also cast its actors, with some scenes already filmed.

Given the somewhat ambiguous nature of Druckmann's earlier comments, these rumors could indeed hold some weight. When Druckmann mentioned there would be "no next *The Last of Us*," he might have been referring to a project already in the works. It's also worth noting that he has made similar statements in the past, right before the announcement of *The Last of Us Part II*. However, it's important to approach Richtman's leaks with caution, as he has a history of inaccurate information.

Despite the uncertainty, it is confirmed that at least a concept for a new installment exists. As for an official announcement or further details, Naughty Dog might be holding off to keep the spotlight on their upcoming new IP, *Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet*.
