Yesterday, Neil Druckmann (the director of The Last of Us) was present at the Summer Game Fest 2022 conference, and clearly, he had not made the trip for nothing. Indeed, in addition to formalizing the remake of the first The Last of Us on PS5, the guy also unveiled a stand alone multiplayer concept art which, at the base, was to be released at the same time as The Last of Us Part II in 2020. Moreover, he confided that the latter now totaled more than 10 million copies sold worldwide. Launched, Neil Druckmann also indicated that Troy Baker and Ashley Johnson (who respectively play Joel and Ellie in the game) would appear in the series which will be broadcast on HBO from 2023.
But the most interesting was without when he indicated that he was working on a brand new project which has not yet been announced. "I'm still making games, it's still my daily life, he explained. It's a little too early to talk about it. Maybe if someone at PlayStation wants to leak my project, I should talk about it now. But no, I won't say anything until the next Summer Game Fest." Of course, Uncharted fans are praying for a return to their favorite series, especially since the door seems to have opened recently with a possible Uncharted 5. We can also imagine that Neil Druckmann is working on a new license.
In any case, last February, Naughty Dog announced that several positions were to be filled. The proof that projects are in the making within the studio.
