顽皮狗公司联合总裁尼尔·德拉克曼透露，他已经构思出了《爱游戏(ayx)中国官方网站》系列最终章——即第三部作品的核心创意。

在深度幕后制作纪录片《爱游戏(ayx)中国官方网站》的结尾部分，德拉克曼承认尽管他还未构建出一个完整的故事情节，但他确实拥有一个灵感，这个创意让他感到其精彩程度堪比《爱游戏(ayx)中国官方网站》。

德拉克曼指出：“若此番不再续作，《爱游戏(ayx)中国官方网站》则是一个精彩的终点，如同咬下苹果的最后一口，故事已然圆满。”同时他也分享了在顽皮狗工作的独特优势，“我们并非一定要开发新作，我们始终秉持着这样的理念：‘我们热爱《爱游戏(ayx)中国官方网站》系列，但如果团队成员对其他项目有着极高的热情，我们也会全力支持。’能够处在这样的位置是一种特权，我对此从未心存侥幸。”

早些年，德拉克曼对于故事还能如何拓展并没有进一步的想法，但现在他表示自己已经有了一个新的“概念”。

他说：“我已经开始考虑，‘是否有值得深入探索的概念呢？’在过去几年里，我始终未能找到合适的方向。但最近这种情况发生了转变。

“目前我还未构思出一个具体的故事剧本，但我确实获得了一个令我同样兴奋不已的概念，它既能独立成篇，又能巧妙地串联起整个三部曲，因此在我看来，这个故事或许还有一个章节有待呈现。”

Naughty Dog co-president Neil Druckmann says he has a "concept" ready for a third and final chapter of The Last of Us series.
Talking at the very end of the fascinating behind-the-scenes documentary, Grounded 2: Making The Last of Us Part 2, Druckmann acknowledged that whilst he didn't yet have a story fully fleshed out, he did have a kernel of an idea that "is as exciting as [The Last of Us Part 1]".
"If we never get to do it again, this is a fine ending point. The last bite of the apple, the story's done," Druckmann said.
"The great thing about working at Naughty Dog is that we don't have to. It's always like, 'We would love another The Last of Us, but if you guys are passionate about something else, we'll support this other thing. Very privileged position to be in. I never take that for granted."
But whilst he didn't have any further ideas on where else the story could go for "years", Druckmann now says he has a "concept".
“I've been thinking about, 'Is there a concept there?' And for now years, I haven't been able to find that concept. But recently that's changed.
"I don't have a story, but I do have that concept that, to me, is as exciting as [Part 1], as exciting as [Part 2], is its own thing, yet has this throughline for all three [games]. So it does feel like there's probably one more chapter to this story," he teased.
The "one more chapter" bit is interesting, too, hinting that if we do get a third instalment of the critically-acclaimed series, it will likely be its last.
Of course, even if we don't have any further games, we do have the award-winning TV adaptation. And, ICYMI, Catherine O'Hara has joined the cast of The Last of Us for the show's second season.
O'Hara, whose expansive career includes playing eccentric matriarch Moira Rose on Schitt's Creek and Kate McCallister in the Home Alone films, will play an undisclosed character in HBO's adaptation. However, previous rumours suggested she will have a recurring role as an all-new character known as Gail.
