PS6 Launch Line-up: A Long-Awaited Sequel?

An Exciting Release Window

The highly anticipated release of the PlayStation 6 has fans buzzing with excitement. Recent information has revealed a confirmed release window for the console, and it's not what anyone expected.

Speculation is Rife

Since the release date came to light, gamers have been speculating about the games that could potentially accompany the next-gen system. With the rising popularity of The Last of Us TV show, players are wondering if a sequel could be on the cards.

Inevitable Development

While developers may not yet have a dev kit for the PS6, it's highly likely that they are already planning games that will take advantage of the next generation hardware. With longer development times, games are often created years in advance and optimized as better hardware becomes available.

The Last of Us: Part 3

One potential contender for the PS6 launch title is The Last of Us: Part 3. Following the success of the TV show, it seems almost certain that Naughty Dog, the game's developer, would be working on a third installment in the series.

Although Part 3 has not been officially confirmed, writer and director Neil Druckmann has been dropping hints about its possibility. He has mentioned that revealing Naughty Dog's current project would lead to him being "slaughtered" and even hinted at an early outline for the story of Part 3 back in 2021.

If we consider the seven-year gap between the release of The Last of Us and Part 2, it's possible that Part 3 could be part of the PS6 launch line-up if the development timeline remains similar.
