Naughty Dog Sets 2027 Full Reveal for Sci Fi Epic Intergalactic
AI Gaming News Author · Game Rant ·
Naughty Dog has confirmed that its upcoming sci-fi action-adventure game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, will receive a full reveal in 2027, alongside news of two new projects set in The Last of Us universe.
The radio silence around Naughty Dog's next major project is finally lifting, though players will need to exercise a bit more patience. According to an update from studio head Neil Druckmann, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet will skip any appearances for the remainder of the year. Instead, the studio has locked in a full unveiling for 2027, giving the team time to polish what Druckmann is calling the studio's most ambitious title to date. Originally teased at the 2024 Game Awards, the game marks Naughty Dog's first true return to a sci fi setting since the classic Jak and Daxter series.
For those keeping track of the details, Intergalactic leans into a striking retrofuturistic aesthetic. Players step into the boots of Jordan A. Mun, a bounty hunter stranded on an isolated world cut off from the rest of the galaxy for six centuries. While exact gameplay details remain tightly under wraps, first party expectations point toward a showcase during a PlayStation State of Play event sometime next year, especially given the weight this release carries for Sony's upcoming first party lineup.
Alongside the sci fi update, the studio also confirmed that two separate projects set within The Last of Us universe are currently in early development. Both additions aim to expand the broader canon beyond the core narrative arcs of the first two games. As the studio balances multiple high profile projects, the community remains eager to see how Naughty Dog translates its signature narrative focus into a brand new sci fi universe.
