The Last of Us, one of the most popular game series of PlayStation, has met with game lovers with two main games, one expansion package and three different remaster versions. This iconic series, which maintains its popularity by overcoming the console generations, has expanded its fan base with its moving to the PC platform. However, the expectation of a new sequel for years has been overshadowed with uncertainty recently.

The expected news came from Neil Druckmann, the creator of the series. Druckmann also encountered a question about the future of the game series during an interview with Variety about The Last of US series. When Naughty Dog was asked about the possibility of a third game, Druckmann gave the following striking but uncertain response: “I was guessing this problem will come. I think the only thing I can say is the last of us … may not be.”

Although these words do not increase the excitement of the fans, Naughty Dog decided to develop a new game, even if it could take years.

Naughty Dog’s New Project: Intergalactic: Heetic Prophet

While the future of the series remains uncertain, Naughty Dog is currently focused on a brand new science fiction project: Intergalactic: Heetic Prophet. This game of Action-Service-Macera invites players to a mysterious story on a remote planet. The hero of the game, the award hunter Jordan A. Mun, will try to survive in this foreign world.

Although this production was announced with a surprise trailer at the 2024 Game Awards event, a definite release date has not yet been announced. This indicates that players may have to wait a few years.
