Naughty Dog is working on a The Last of Us remake, according to a new report.
Bloomberg said this project was in development at an unnanounced new studio created within its little-known San Diego-based Visual Arts Service Group, but was handed to Naughty Dog after Sony had a change of mind.
Meanwhile, Days Gone 2 isn’t happening. Bloomberg said developer Sony Bend unsuccessfully pitched the sequel in 2019. “Although the first game had been profitable, its development had been lengthy and critical reception was mixed, so a Days Gone 2 wasn’t seen as a viable option,” Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier reported.
A team within Sony Bend is now helping Naughty Dog with a multiplayer game. A second team within Sony Bend was assigned to work on a new Uncharted game “with supervision from Naughty Dog”, but this is no longer happening and Sony Bend is now working on a new game of its own.
