The Last of Us: Part II julkaistiin pelkkänä yksinpelikokemuksena, mutta kehittäjä Naughty Dog ilmoitti nopeasti ja sutjakkaasti, että tulossa olisi silti jatkoa moninpeliosuuteen Factions. Hiljaista on kuitenkin pitänyt, mutta edelleen moninpeliosuus on työn alla.
Päivityksen mukaan Factionsin seuraaja on edelleen tulossa: suunnitelmat eivät ole muuttuneet.
"In short, we're working on it. We see the community comments as many of you clamor for multiplayer and want updates. For now, we'll say that we love what the team is developing and want to give them time to build out their ambitious project, we'll reveal more when it's ready! To that end, we've been busy growing our team inside the kennel since The Last of Us Part II launched and are currently in full swing of hiring for MP-related positions (hint hint), so if you or somebody you know qualifies for anything you see on our jobs page, apply!"
