Naughty Dogs next official game is Intergalatic featuring a bounty hunter in space, and Neil Druckmann has been suggesting TLOU3 might not happen.

He said he knows for a fact that the studio has already cast actors for roles, and that certain scenes have been filmed.Now the insider has elaborated on the casting announcement by revealing details about several new characters in a post on Patreon.Per Comic Basics, Richtman claims the game features a new group of scavengers occupying a Victorian house on the edge of a ruined city. Similar to everyone else, they are struggling to survive, and the rumored new characters are as follows:Val She is the leader of the groupEzra He wants to usurp ValMason Former soldier, he must choose between protecting the house or staying loyal to EzraLucas Friendly at first, but shows a dark side after becoming closer to another scavengerGracie Young woman aged between 18-25Remember that all of this is just rumors and not anything official. Right now, the official word from Neil Druckmann is that The Last of Us Part 3 might never happen.If the rumor is accurate, then it could possibly be worrying news for fans of Ellie and Abby. This new group of survivors could potentially be the threat either Ellie or Abby has to thwart, or they could be the main focus of the game while Ellie and Abby take more of a backseat.While the future of Abby is up in the air, it would seem almost guaranteed that Ellie would at least play a pivotal role in The Last of Us Part 3 as she is a fan-favorite and has been the main character. Then again, Joel was a fan-favorite and the main character of part 1, and we all know what happened to him.In other The Last of Us news, Naughty Dog revealed their original plans for the ending of Part 2.Related TopicsThe Last of Us Part III Subscribe to our newsletters!By subscribing, you agree to our Privacy Policy and may receive occasional deal communications; you can unsubscribe anytime.Share
