We’ve seenThe Last of Us Part 2sweep up at the Golden Joystick Awards during the week and, personally speaking, rightly so. Hosted by Laura Bailey and Travis Willingham, the controversial game took home six trophies including Best Storytelling and Ultimate Game of the Year. While talking aboutThe Last of Us Part 2being nominated by the upcomingGame Awardsin nine categories, composer Gustavo Santaolalla made an intriguing comment in a Twitter post stating that work on Part 2 was “just the beginning”.
Naturally, Santaolalla’s tweet caused a bit of a stir with people believing that this could very well be in reference to a Part 3 forThe Last of Us. Over onResetera, there are already discussions on what “just the beginning” could possibly mean and if he’s actually talking about anotherLast of Usgame or maybe an entirely different Naughty Dog project. Of course, the comment could also mean that he’s referring toHBO’sThe Last of Usas we know that Neil Druckmann stated that Gustavo Santaolalla will be back lending his incredible music abilities to the show. To add more fuel to the already burning fire, Derek Philips best know for this role as Jerry Anderson,Abby’s dad, in Part 2posted on Twitterthat was “back to work” while wearing a mocap suit.
Either way, we will just have to do the waiting game but a Part 3 isn’t out of the question here especially in how Part 2 ended. I would love to see it happen but I would also love to see an entirely new game from Naughty Dog or even the devs continuing with Chloe and Nadine in more ofUncharted: Lost Legacy. In the meantime,The Last of Usfans are still patiently awaiting some kind of news of the multiplayer aspects of the game as all we’ve heard so far is Naughty Dog state that they’re “excited to share more when it’s ready.” We all know how Naughty Dog love to keep fans waiting.
