Neil Druckmann, co-creator of the saga, reveals that this option has long been considered
Now that The first season of The Last of Us TV series is overthe media is starting to publish all kinds of interviews with the creators. Neil Druckmanwho was co-creator of the video games and is now producer/writer of the HBO adaptation, makes various statements the sea of interesting on the post-apocalyptic universe of Joel and Ellie.
In addition to brief references to a hypothetical The Last of Us: Part III, Druckmann is also careful to leave fans in awe with some big reveals that no one expected. We also have the case of his appearance in the podcast Kinda funnywhere he revealed that years ago Naughty Dog Seriously Considered Making Another Video Game That Would Serve As A Prequel.
The Last of Us game that was never made
- According to Druckmann, in the past he was weighed the possibility that another study took on the task of adapting a story element of The Last of Us that we had never seen before until the premiere of episode 9 of the HBO series
- This “element” was neither more nor less than the character background of Anna, Ellie’s mother
- “There was a more complete version of this story that went further back in time that was going to be made into a video game. Of course, it wasn’t going to be created by Naughty Dog, but by another studio.”, Seguro Druckmann
- And why was this project abandoned?: Apparently Naughty Dog had long conversations with a specific developer, but things didn’t work out and they decided to abandon their original idea
Will there be a The Last of Us: Part III?
Neil Druckmann confirmed that They’ve been working on a new AAA video game for a while nowHowever at no time did they confirm or deny that this was another The Last of Us. At Naughty Dog, they know people want another episode, but the developers really want to complete the project they’re passionate about right now.
Personally, I think this company is creating a brand new IP address that will surprise everyone. It’s been said in the past that they could present a fantastic story, which I think is fantastic. What do you think?
