It looks like new updates for "Naughty Dog's" action-adventure survival horror sequel, "The Last of Us 2" have been revealed regarding a rumored release date and multiplayer gameplay.

According to Forbes, voice actor Nolan North has caused quite huge stir this week as he inadvertently revealed that "The Last of Us 2" is in the works for the PlayStation 4 console, during a question and answer segment at Metron Con in Tampa, Florida.

During the segment, a fan asked North whether he will still be voicing other video game characters for Naughty Dog, aside for "Uncharted 4." Nolan answered by saying that his stint in "Uncharted 4" could be his last for the company and he followed it up by stating that Naughty Dog could be working on "Last of Us 2," Wired reported.

Gamerant speculated that both North and Naughty Dog might have discussed their plans for "The Last of Us 2" at some point despite the fact that his character David died in the first game, and at one point, Naughty Dog stated that the sequel was put on hold for the meantime.

However, a new report from the website revealed that Joel's voice actor Troy Barker stated that he has no idea that "The Last of Us 2" video game was in the works.

This has certainly made contradictions as to what Nolan said before, but there is a possibility that he was ignorant about its existence in order for Naughty Dog to keep the sequel under wraps from gaming fans.

In other news, there are rumors making rounds about "The Last of Us 2'" release date and its new gameplay features.

Moviepilot reportedly claimed that Naughty Dog could be working on having a two player co-op feature for "The Last of Us 2" as well as new characters being introduced for the sequel that may put an end to stry of Joel and Ellie.

"The Last of Us" game director Bruce Straley stated that they seize operations on the sequel in order to focus on finishing the development of "Uncharted 4."

KPopStarz reportedly claimed that "The Last of Us 2" could launch on either 2017 or 2018 for the PS4 and PS3 consoles.
