Re-releasing The Last of Us right now makes a lot of sense.

Many PS4 owners did not have a PS3 last gen, so these are potential "future customer" for the franchise. They must be likely to be working on a sequel right? (I have not completed the game. Please do not spoil. Just looking for a Yes or No)

Any sales for this Re-master is beneficial. The game has over 5M sales from people who owned a PS3. If TLOU2 releases in a couple years then the potential to grow from the original is greater, since the player base is now larger.

 

Waiting to re-release this AFTER The Last of Us 2 would be a terrible move. Saying it would be better if they worked on something else instead of this makes no sense. It is a great growth opportunity for the franchise. Why would you not take advantage?

Nothing official yet of course, but I'd say yes they are definitely going to continue the franchise on PS4.

I figured with them hitting 6M in sales back in March, they must be thinking of making another.

I expect them to be somewhere near 7M shipped+digital soon. Any new customers from the PS4 remaster only adds to this already quite large number.
