Naughty Dog and its games are in trend nowadays. Many fans around the world have their eyes set on Naughty Dog, wondering where this company would go next. Their previous titles, from the Uncharted series to The Last of Us, everything has been pretty successful. The latter series was popular enough to even spawn an HBO series. This series again received a positive response from the viewers, and now there’s no shortage of people asking for a sequel.

Finally, Naughty Dog has chosen what they will work on next.

Neil Druckmann recently talked about Naughty Dog’s next project, and he confirmed that his team has finalized on their upcoming project.
He talked about the game during a kind of funny interview and specifically said, “I know the fans really want The Last of Us Part 3; I hear about it all the time, and all I could say is that we are already into our next project.”

This means that Naughty Dog is probably not working on The Last of Us Part 3. Although there’s a high chance that this game would come, but probably not anytime soon. The simple reason behind this is that the game’s primary writer and director, Neil Druckmann, would be busy with season 2 of the HBO series starting this year and for the better part of 2024.
