The absence of Naughty Dog’s multiplayer The Last of Us title was the biggest disappointment of the last PlayStation Showcase for many of its followers and, although there are those who were hopeful of seeing the project at the Summer Game Fest, it seems that it will not be like that. The developer of PlayStation Studios has just issued a statement in which explains the absence of game news at the same time as confirms working on a third project.
“We know that many of you are waiting to know more about our The Last of Us multiplayer game,” they began to explain in the statement published on social networks. “We’re incredibly proud of the work our studio has done so far, but as development has continued, we have realized that the best thing for the game is to give it more time“.

With these words, it seems that Naughty Dog is anticipating that the multiplayer project will require more time before being revealed to the public with an official title and its first images, although the developer started the year promising news. In fact, “our team will continue to work on the project, as well as on our other games in developmentincluding a new single player experience“.
In this way, the creators of Uncharted and The Last of Us confirm at least two more games in development, being one for a single player. While it is true that The Last of Us Part III is currently the most rumored after the success of the series, a new fantasy license has also sounded loud in the past that would present a world with magic totally unknown until now.
When will we see The Last of Us multiplayer game?
“We are grateful to our fantastic community for their support. Thank you for your passion for our games, it continues to drive us,” ends the statement that It does not give rise to imagine when we will hear from the study again. In the case of the multiplayer project, the last we heard was that, with a team led by Vinit Agarwal, Joe Pettinati and Anthony Newman, they are working on a fresh new experience for studyingalbeit rooted in Naughty Dog’s passion for delivering incredible stories, characters, and gameplay.
Is The Last of Us multiplayer gameplay Naughty Dog’s priority? Is its release being delayed internally? Will we be able to see images of the project soon? There are many questions and few answers that we have, but the statements point to the absence of news at the Summer Game Fest…
