Last Of Us Fans Are You Ready? Season 2 Incoming But Game 3... Not So Fast!

Hey Last Of Us fans! Get hyped because Season 2 of the hit HBO show is just around the corner. We are all waiting to see Joel and Ellie back in action but there's also some chatter about the games especially if we will ever get a Last Of Us Part 3. Let's break down what's happening in the world of The Last Of Us both on screen and in video game land.

Season 2 is Almost Here: Get Ready for More Joel and Ellie (and Maybe Some Shocks?)

Mark your calendars folks The Last Of Us Season 2 is dropping on HBO on April 13th. That is not too far away! Season 1 was a massive hit becoming super popular in Europe and now everyone is wondering what Season 2 has in store.

If you are familiar with The Last Of Us Part 2 game you might have an idea of what is coming. But even if you know the game expect some surprises. Season 2 will cover parts of Part 2 of the game. It is such a big game that it sounds like it might even take a few seasons to tell the whole story. HBO is even thinking the show could run for a total of four seasons to cover everything.

Neil Druckmann the guy behind The Last Of Us games and the show is excited and curious to see how fans react to Season 2. He knows some of the plot points might be surprising especially for folks who haven't played the game. He even hinted that some moments might be a bit controversial just like in Part 2 of the game. Remember all the strong reactions to Part 2? Yeah get ready for some possible water cooler talk moments again.

But don't worry Druckmann says they are focused on making a great show. He is not trying to worry too much about fan reactions. They want to make something they are proud of and then let the audience react however they will. He seems ready for whatever comes whether people love it or have strong opinions. One thing is for sure Season 2 is going to be a ride.

The Big Question: What About The Last Of Us Part 3 Game? Don't Hold Your Breath Just Yet

Now for the game question everyone is asking: Will there be a Last Of Us Part 3? Well the answer is... maybe? But don't bet on it happening super soon. Neil Druckmann himself has said "don't bet on there being more of ‘Last of Us.’ This could be it.”

He clarified his comments saying for a new Last Of Us project to happen "so many stars have to align". Basically it is not a sure thing at all. Druckmann mentioned he always approaches each project like it might be his last. He poured everything into The Last Of Us 1 and 2 and even games like Uncharted 4 like there would not be another one.

He does have an ending in mind for the overall Last Of Us story but whether that ending gets told in a game or just in the TV show is up in the air. Right now Druckmann is super busy with Season 2 of the show and also working on a brand new sci-fi game called "Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet". That new game is not expected until 2027 at the earliest. So if The Last Of Us Part 3 game does happen it is likely a long way off.

Adding to the uncertainty Craig Mazin the showrunner for The Last Of Us TV series has said he won't be involved in adapting a Part 3 game for TV even if it does get made. He plans to be "done" with the show after they finish adapting Part 2 maybe around Season 4. He would be open to being a consultant but not taking on the main showrunner role again. So it sounds like if The Last Of Us continues after Part 2 it will be a new chapter with some changes behind the scenes.

Future is Uncertain But For Now Focus on Season 2 and The Journey

So what does this all mean for The Last Of Us future? It is a bit unclear. The TV show is definitely moving forward with Season 2 and likely more to come to cover Part 2 of the game. But The Last Of Us Part 3 game? That is still a big question mark. It might happen someday but it is definitely not guaranteed and not in active development right now according to Druckmann.

For now maybe it is best to just enjoy what we know is coming: The Last Of Us Season 2 on HBO starting April 13th. Get ready for more Joel and Ellie more infected and more intense story moments. And who knows maybe down the road we will get some news about The Last Of Us Part 3 game but for now let's focus on the journey we are on and see where Season 2 takes us.
