After years of speculation and rumors, Naughty Dog has finally announced its next game. Known for its grounded stories in The Last of Us and Uncharted, the Santa Monica-based game developer’s next title is called Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, a sci-fi game. The upcoming game was revealed to the world in a surprise announcement at The Game Awards 2024.
Unlike its recent games, Intergalactic will be a much more open-ended affair. The new retro-inspired game will have players take on the role of a bounty hunter, a far cry from the protagonists of its previous games. Intergalactic is the first new IP from Naughty Dog in over a decade.

Its premise reveals that its world is based on a new science-based religion. Like the Jax and Daxter series, players can explore its planets with a giant, stylish spaceship.
