"The Last of Us 2" release date is allegedly set to be on July 2017 if the reports and rumors are to be believed.

Cyberland has reported that Naughty Dog has allegedly tentatively set "The Last of Us 2" release date to be on July 2017.

"My sources has talked to their contact in Naughty Dog and they have confirmed that the last of us 2 is going to be out by July of 2017. The development of the game would resume this year but their focus on the game would not be until the release of Uncharted 4," wrote Cyberland.

Previously, KpopStarz reported that "The Last of Us 2" release date was confirmed by Naughty Dog to be set after the launch of "Uncharted 4: A Thief's End". KpopStarz also reports that the development of "The Last of Us 2" is going to be postponed so that Naughty Dog can focus on the development of "Uncharted 4".

"It has been officially announced that 'The Last Of Us 2' will come out after the release date of 'Uncharted 4: A Thief's End.'," wrote KpopStarz.

KpopStarz then continued, "Naughty Dog recently confirmed that they have "TLOU" set "on ice" as they currently have their eyes set on the sequel to the "Uncharted" series, which is expected to come out this year."

It should be noted that Hypable reported that the "Last of Us 2" is in the early stages of development and that Naughty Dog has the stage for what would happen in the sequel and it may not include Joel and Ellie at all:

"When asked if there was going to be further content for the universe Joel and Ellie live in, Creative Director Druckmann said, 'It's possible. We're playing with some ideas, but no direction has been set yet for the next game.'"

"By stating 'for the next game,' Druckmann confirmed The Last of Us 2 is in the planning process," wrote Hypable.

Hypable then stated, "Later on, Druckmann tries to cover for himself, answering 'Will you be making another The Last of Us and will it feature Joel and Ellie?' with 'Don't know yet.'"
