Neil Druckmann Hints at No The Last of Us Part 3

by David May 06,2025

If you're a fan of *The Last of Us* eagerly awaiting news on a potential *Part 3* video game, prepare for some disappointing news. Neil Druckmann, the series' creator, has recently dampened hopes about the development of *The Last of Us Part 3* in a comprehensive interview with Variety, which primarily focused on the upcoming TV series adaptation.

When questioned about the possibility of *The Last of Us Part 3*, Druckmann's response was clear and disheartening. He sighed and said, “I was waiting for this question... I guess the only thing I would say is don’t bet on there being more of ‘Last of Us.’ This could be it.” This statement has left fans uncertain about the future of the beloved franchise.

Currently, Naughty Dog is fully engaged in developing *Intergalactic*, a new project announced at The Game Awards last December. With no release window in sight, *Intergalactic* is likely years away from completion. This focus on a new venture suggests that there might not be room in Naughty Dog's schedule for *The Last of Us Part 3* anytime soon. Druckmann's comments could be a strategic move to manage expectations, or they might reflect a genuine conclusion to the series. Only time will tell if his stance will shift.

For fans still hungry for more *The Last of Us* content, the television series offers a glimmer of hope. The second season is set to premiere on April 13 on Max. While Druckmann remains uncertain about the number of seasons needed to fully adapt the story of *Part 2*, an HBO executive hinted in February that four seasons might be the ideal length to cover the entire narrative.
