The cryptic tweet in question simply claims that Baker will have some big news to announce soon, with little indication as to what he’s specifically commenting on. While a number of fans immediately turned to moreThe Last of Us 2rumors, other fans familiar with his music work have begun anticipating a new album dropping soon. At the time of writing, Baker hasn’t yet commented on what the topic of the tweet is, however that hasn’t stopped fans from speculating in every possible direction.
It should be noted as well, thatDeath Stranding’s PC releaseis also on its way soon, and with it may come a new insight on Baker’s antagonistic character, Higgs Monaghan. The point is that at the moment, this announcement could be anything, so hopefully fans won’t fixate too heavily onThe Last of Us 2as it looks like the game’s release is drifting further and further from sight. That being said, if Baker has any information onThe Last of Us 2that he wishes to share, it would always be welcome, as fans are currently starving for anything related to the game.
If fans are correct, and Baker has been cleared to speak on his work inThe Last of Us 2, that would certainly be something for fans to be excited about. Joel is easilyBaker’s most iconic role, which is why it makes sense for fans to immediately assume that this is the topic he would be choosing to address with “big news” as he claims in the tweet. However, it may be best for fans to not hang too heavily on that singular role, as the voice actor’s range and portfolio extend to a number of other areas.
