Naughty Dog has made a name for itself in the realm of story-focused single-player games, with popular franchises like Uncharted and The Last of Us. Both have been adapted into big-screen films and television shows.
Exciting New Game Announcement
Recently, the rumor mill has been buzzing with speculation about Naughty Dog's next project. In a post on the PlayStation Blog, Neil Druckman, the Head of Naughty Dog Studios, unveiled their newest intellectual property titled Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
Game Details and Development
Currently, specifics about the game are scarce, but it has reportedly been in the works since 2020. It appears to be a narrative-driven space adventure featuring elements like space Porches, light swords, and ninja assassin robots. While the storyline is still a secret, Druckman assures fans that it will adhere to Naughty Dog's legacy of providing an "emotional, character-focused epic journey," alongside the "most profound gameplay in Naughty Dog's history."
The trailer gives off a nostalgic 80s feel, set to the tune of Pet Shop Boys' "Actually." In it, we meet the main character, "Jordan A Mun," a bounty hunter who finds himself stranded on a remote planet where people mysteriously vanish. The trailer hints that this will be a "mature" game, which raises excitement for those looking for content directed at an adult audience.
Exclusive Availability
There has been no word regarding a PC release, which indicates that this game will be a PS5 exclusive for now. However, if Sony keeps its trend of later releasing older titles on PC, those without a PlayStation 5 might eventually get the chance to experience it.
For those eager to play, the PlayStation 5 is currently discounted by $75 at Best Buy. Since there is no confirmed release date yet, you might have the opportunity to wait for a better deal. Nonetheless, fans of Naughty Dog are anxiously anticipating further announcements. Let's hope that Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet doesn't require another five years of development before reaching players.
