Ever since The Last of Us debuted in 2013, Naughty Dog has taken a unique approach to endings, crafting conclusions that offer closure while also leaving room for potential sequels. Joel’s lie at the end of Part 1 left the possibility of a peaceful future, while Part 2’s conclusion provided sufficient closure while still allowing for further exploration. Now, with Neil Druckmann’s latest remarks, it’s increasingly possible that Part 2 might really be where the series ends.
