One of the most beloved and award-winning sagas in the world of video games keeps all its fans on edge. Will have third part The Last of Us? Its creators have declared on many occasions that they would not do it if they did not find a story that was worthwhile, so everything remained in doubt until further notice. Well, it seems that we have not had to wait too long to hear the first rumors.
Factions and Part 3, two different things
The first thing to be very clear about is that all the rumors that are going to be heard from now on can describe two completely different projects, since in addition to the highly anticipated Part III of The Last of Us, Naughty Dog still owes us the forgotten Factionsa multiplayer mode that must have been delivered with The Last of Us Part 2, and that finally remained in the drawer of abandoned projects.
It is precisely from the latter that certain details have been heard, since Daniel Richtman, through his Patreon account, has shared details of a supposed Naughty Dog project, related to The Last of Us that initially pointed to the cast of actors. of The Last of Us Part III, but that finally seems to be describing Factions.

According to the information, these new five characters (Lucas, Mason, Val, Ezra and Gracis) survive on the outskirts of a post-apocalyptic city while occupying a derelict victorian house that serves as the base. Looking at the description, it is easy to imagine that we are facing a mode of extraction in which the group of survivors must explore the outskirts in search of resources.
What we know about TLOU Part III
And, on the other hand, the Twitter ViewerAnon has published information with which it ensures that The Last of Us Part III is already in development. This would be the first time that the development of the game is discussed, and it is that, apparently, Ellie seems to have as much of a role as she did in Part II.and whose scenes would be recorded this year.
Look, it’s early, story details are tweaked and everything is potentially up in the air to be changed, but I assure you I’ve heard Ellie is at least as important in LAST OF US PART III as she was in PART II. https://t.co/WYdKRFo0pG

Let’s remember that the end of The Last of Us Part II left us with Ellie completely alone in the Victorian house that she and Dina occupied, but that the latter left after seeing how Ellie decided to go back to look for Abby in search of revenge. We will have to know if Ellie decides to look for Dina or if she, on the contrary, is heading towards another path in her life. Surely the plot will leave us quite touched again.
