Naughty Dog Developing Two New The Last of Us Projects
Naughty Dog has two new projects set in The Last of Us universe in early development, according to reports.
Naughty Dog is developing two new projects set in The Last of Us universe, both currently in very early stages of development.
Details about the nature of these projects remain limited. No information has been provided regarding gameplay style, narrative focus, platforms, or expected timelines. The studio has not made an official announcement beyond confirmation that the projects are underway.
The Last of Us franchise has expanded significantly in recent years. The original game and its sequel remain flagship titles for PlayStation, while the universe has also been adapted into an HBO television series. These new projects represent continued investment in the franchise by developer Naughty Dog.
As both projects are in very early stages, substantial development time likely remains before players see gameplay or receive release information.
