"The Last of Us" has been a huge success since Naughty Dog released it in 2013. Now, Nolan North has shed some light on the rumors circling around the possibility of the game's sequel. Apart from that, many speculated that Joel, the main protagonist, might get killed at the start of the new franchise.
When the original game was released back in 2013, fans have praised its narrative story, gameplay and soundtrack. Hence most of them were so eager to see "The Last of Us 2." And to put all those uncertainties to rest, voice actor Nolan North has recently confirmed that the sequel is indeed on the works, as reported by Movie Pilot. North, who is best known for playing Nathan Drake in the "Uncharted" franchise series, has mentioned that Naughty Dog is already planning the workarounds for "The Last of Us 2."
However, according to Ecumenical News, fans will have to wait a bit more as there will be delays for "The Last of Us 2's" release. Naughty Dog is believed to be putting all its efforts and focus in finishing "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End" before setting its eyes on the highly-awaited "The Last of Us" sequel. The upcoming "Uncharted" sequel is reportedly the last for the entire series.
As for the possible "The Last of Us 2" plot, Latino Post reported that it's going to be interesting as the game will include a possible death for Joel. The scene where Joel is dying and Ellie is trying to survive will reportedly make an interesting and dramatic storyline, as gamers can find the latter reminiscing her days with the former. The trailer about Joel getting infected which forces Ellie to kill him was reportedly constructed in a particular way for fans to keep guessing on what "The Last of Us 2" might really entail.
As of this writing, fans can only hope that what Nolan North said is true, as "The Last of Us 2" has yet to receive an official release date from Naughty Dog. In the meantime, they can continue speculating what the sequel might offer them.
