Naughty Dog on The Last of Us Multiplayer Project: 'In Short, We're Working On It' - IGN

For those who are unaware or may not remember, Naughty Dog announced that it had made the "difficult choice" to not include an online multiplayer mode in The Last of Us Part 2 after the scope and ambition of the game's single-player campaign reached a level even the team had not anticipated.

However, considering the love many have for The Last of Us' Faction mode, Naughty Dog reassured fans that it would be returning in some form in the future?

While we still don't know if this will be a standalone game, part of a future collection of The Last of Us games, and or part of a new game, we do know that Naughty Dog is hard at work at making it a reality?

In our opinion, a standalone The Last of Us multiplayer game is actually a great idea.
