Usually developer diaries are released in the run up to the release of a game, but Naughty Dog have released a new video commenting on the characters of Ellie and Joel. There are details about each character’s motivations and life stories which give some depth to why the characters act the way they do.
Now the release of this developer diary 3 months after the release date of The Last Of Us isn’t a mere accident on Naughty Dogs part. If anything this video could be hinting to some more story DLC for the title, possibly focusing more on the lead characters though during which period that could be is up in the air.
It could be set before the events of The Last Of Us showing both Joel’s life as a black market dealer, and Ellie as she grows up in the quarantine zone. It could also be post The Last Of Us but I’m not sure where it would go. It could even be during but focusing on one of the secondary characters and what they got up to during the events of the game.
It’s all just speculation but if there is going to be more DLC expect an announcement soon.

I really hope it’s about Joel and Ellie.

More Single Player of anything/anyone would be good with me, the game is brilliant.

A proper expansion on the story, no matter where in the timeline, would be brilliant. But I can’t help but feel it’s complete as is.

I can’t say there were any hints at DLC. Sure, they were talking about back stories but nothing more than that.
