While there havent been very encouraging updates recently regarding the multiplayer of The Last of Us, Naughty Dog has suggested that they have more projects in development for the franchise, and today the studios chief creative officer and series creator has just dropped another hint.
Neil Druckmann, president and lead creator of The Last of Us, took the opportunity to congratulate Gustavo Santaolalla on receiving a significant distinction and to acknowledge his lifelong artistic work.
"Congratulations, maestro! What an incredible oeuvre!" Druckmann expressed to the composer of The Last of Us soundtrack.
Will Gustavo Santaolalla work on more The Last of Us?
Whats interesting is that the message didnt end there; Druckmann reminded the artist that there are more plans to collaborate, suggesting that there are more The Last of Us projects in the works, as Santaolallas collaborations with Naughty Dog have been linked to the post-apocalyptic franchise.
"But remember… we have much more collaboration ahead," commented the head of Naughty Dog.
Unfortunately, no further details were provided, so we dont know what future projects Druckmann is referring to. Its essential to note that they may not necessarily be video games, as the creator was involved in the HBO series of The Last of Us, and its very likely that he will also be involved in Season 2.
While Santaolalla has only worked with Naughty Dog on The Last of Us projects, its not ruled out that he may participate in another franchise.

What award did Gustavo Santaolalla win?
This week, the Latin GRAMMY 2023 will be celebrated, recognizing the best Latin music performers.
The main event is scheduled for November 16, but last Sunday, a special gala took place, honoring the artistic work of Gustavo Santaolalla.
The prolific Argentine artist received the Musical Excellence Award from the Latin Recording Academys Board of Trustees in a ceremony that also acknowledged the legacy of the Argentine rock band Soda Estéreo.
"Thanks to my friends and family who have shared this story with me. To the musicians, producers, and artists Ive worked with," expressed the artist. "And of course, thanks to the fans who have been by my side over the years, accompanying me on every project."
