THIS ARTICLE HAS MAJOR SPOILERS FOR THE LAST OF US FRANCHISE
Rumors have been swirling about a potential Last of Us 3 for quite some time. Rumors point to the new game following a mostly-new cast of characters alongside a returning Ellie, but nothing official has been confirmed by Naughty Dog at the time of this writing. The confirmation that Troy Baker is in Naughty Dog's next game casts doubt on it being The Last of Us 3, though.
Naughty Dog is Rumored to Be Making a Sci-Fi Game
Rumors over the years have suggested that Naughty Dog is making an original IP, potentially called Stray's Cross, and that it might have a sci-fi or steampunk setting with a first-person perspective. Nothing official about the rumored project has been revealed to date, and so fans should take that information with a massive grain of salt. But it would make more sense for Troy Baker to appear in an original IP from Naughty Dog than a third Last of Us game.
If Naughty Dog's next game is not The Last of Us 3, it's understandable that franchise fans may be upset. After all, The Last of Us multiplayer game was canceled, leaving franchise fans without any new game releases to look forward to. On the bright side, The Last of Us HBO series is coming back for Season 2 in spring of next year, so fans can look forward to that, at least.
