For now we are gonna get Ghostwire Tokyo from Tango.

Let's speculate about TEW 3 after that.
Highly unlikely. At least not from Sebastian or Kidmans point of view. The story is pretty much done, even if you see the machines power up at the end, it might be Ruvik. But he doesn't really matter anymore since you are done with that and left the past behind.

Hell, we might not even get Ghostwire Tokyo because Ikumi Nakamura isn't anymore on the project.

Stop pulling stuff out of nowhere. It's sad that Nakamura is gone, but she didn't make that game all by herself. Pete Hines just reaffirmed a month ago that development on GhostWire is going very well:

Nakamura wasn't really a key staff.

Yeah she was the creative director and presented Ghostwire well. But I don't think her leaving Tango will cancel the whole project.

Bah, Pete Hines' Word is far from reliable. I watched the original interview (funny that the original video linked on your source had been deleted but reuploaded, with overwhelming amount of dislikes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-dP3RxMKZM) and while there are some interesting stuff, is filled with plenty of lies,omissions and manipluations from Pete, especially when he talked about Fallout 76. Anyway, for Ikumi Nakamura to exit so soon after Ghostwire Tokyo's announcement, there must have been a huge disagreement about creative direction of the project, and Bethesda must have had a big hand on it. But sure she was replaced with someone talented, maybe Shinji Mikami himself took her place, who knows.
As for The Evil Within 3, well it's not gonna come anytime soon since TEW2 sold poorly and Tango Gameworks is very busy with Ghostwire Tokyo. Sebastian's journey is pretty much done, but Juli Kidman is still on game and Joseph Oda is a huge loose end... If there's a new sequel gonna take at least 3 more years of waiting.

Yep.
People blew up her leaving as a mark of death just because they liked her presentation at E3.

Makes me wonder if people really know how often creative directors and even projects leads leave companies in the middle of development...
Happens a lot.

She was one person. The rest of Tango are still there, still working away.

I really hope we'll get a third game. (and we should get one cuz of the ending)

The game was so damn good, im really glad that i've played both evil within games. Also if we get a third game, its probably gonna be a different "universe" - without sebastian and no kidman anymore. The story is done.

Let's just hope!

Wow, STEM booted up after ages of non-usage for 3 seconds, time to go back into STEM as Sebastian. Hell no. The story of Sebastian, Kidman and Joseph (even tho he was missing, but he was adressed as being alive) are over. Mobius doesn't exist, and we don't really care about Ruvik. None of the characters who are alive do. While being a complete lunatic, he made STEM just for him, and him alone. Not unlike Mobius who wanted to control everyone.

Mira is also dead, since she also had a mobius chip in her brain, only if she removed the chip like Kidman did would she rise again. That part we don't really know, since she remained in STEM to detonate the black boxes.

If TEW3 ever comes out, it would either have to be a soft reboot, or a prequel or something in-between the time of TEW1 and TEW2 with a new character. Like i don't know, Joseph.
Other than that, i don't see TEW3 happening any time soon, if ever. Despite how good the games are, the first impressions left a bad mark on the first game with the day 1 patch for PS4 and Black Bars/Framerate uncap only being removed post-launch. It had a very, very rough launch. If you were to play the PS4 version unpatched, you would play it at 15 frames most of the time.
It also doesn't help how much the engine in both games are pushing the hardware, or rather not using it properly and the only way to achieve 60 frames is to bruteforce it with GFX cards that weren't even available at launch for the masses of those games.

Who says people don't care about Ruvik? Or that Mobius is dead or "doesn't exist"... because one facility went under?

All of them went under. The adminstrator was the head of the Mobius. Why would "one" facility get under, when the whole point was them being on top with the new STEM system.
They only developed STEM for the Mobius we know. If there are other Mobius facilities, they have nothing to do with STEM. The first one was a prototype the second one was a working machine, and they wanted to expand it wirelessly. The Mobius from the first game is the Mobius in the second game that went under. Leslie is now Ruvik, and he might tamper with the machine, but he only wants it for his personal gain, not to enslave people via wireless connections.

Sebastian, Joseph and Kidman don't care about Ruvik. Even Ruvik himself explains to Kidman in her DLC that he doesn't pose a big problem and that Mobius is something she should fear.

I doubt Kidman or Sebastian would ever again step into STEM because of Ruvik.
And don't you think it would get stale at this point? The whole thing about STEM was made because they wanted to blend so much things into one horror game and explain it in a simple manner. Because "it just works" and you can have Silent Hill and Resident Evil in one go.
This is why there is so much variety in the first game.

Why milk a franchise that didn't met sales expectations when you can do new IPs and games that might provide benefits to the developer and in this case, the publisher who is Zenimax/Bethesda. No one likes Bethesda, but if there is something they have, it's great studios that can work in complete freedom on what games they want to create.

If Shinji Mikami wants to do a third game, alright, i am up for it, but at this point i doubt it. He created a lot for the Horror Genre, and TEW1 and TEW2 are the RE4 sequels we never got.

Even From Software doesn't want to do Souls games anymore. At least not in the near future. They branch with different IPs, such as Bloodborne and Sekiro and now Elden Ring.
Same for Dishonored and PREY (which is IMO, the closest thing we get to System Shock 3)

Well, there is definitely room for The Evil Within 3. Sebastian's Story is very much over, but Joseph Oda is a strong candidate for protagonist and Juli Kidman's situation is nebulous, she could return or not that's an incognite, I would love to see her again. Ruvik is out there within Leslie's body and sure he was bidding his time to do a worldwide domination, which could suck Juli Kidman in.
As for Mobius, i'm not sure it's completely destroyed. Sure the members of The Administrator's facility are all dead but there were other facilities and at least some could have survived Myra's annihilation.
For the game itself, whether it's gonna be made or not, it's gonna take several more years. Tango Gameworks is surely busy with Ghostwire Tokyo which is a far greater priority.

Is there a chance that Ghostwire is in the same universe as The Evil Within ?
