We’re back! You’ve been dying to know what’s coming next, and I’m happy to finally answer: Naughty Dog’s next game is Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, currently in development for the PlayStation 5 console. We’ve been working on this brand new adventure since 2020! This game is shaping up to be our wildest and most creative story yet. If you haven’t already, check out the announcement trailer:

Intergalactic stars our newest protagonist, Jordan A. Mun, a dangerous bounty hunter stranded on Sempiria – a distant planet whose communications with the outer universe were severed hundreds of years ago. In fact, everyone who flew there in hopes of solving its mysterious past was never heard from again. Jordan must use all her skills and wits if she hopes to be the first human to leave orbit in over 600 years.

Beyond that, we’re keeping everything about the story a secret – at least for now. We can tell you that this game lives up to Naughty Dog’s tradition of creating an emotional, character-driven epic journey. Our narrative goals are exceeded only by our gameplay ambitions. This will be the most immersive gameplay in Naughty Dog history, taking what we’ve learned from our previous franchises and pushing them beyond anything we’ve ever done before.

Jordan is played by the talented Tati Gabrielle, who leads a stellar cast (pun intended!). Sharp-eyed players might spot some of the other cast members in the trailer. We’ll reveal more of our ensemble later.

Our incredible journey into the cosmos also needs an equally incredible soundtrack. As big fans of their work, I’m excited to announce our collaboration with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross, who will be voicing Intergalactic! The boys are cooking and the trailer is just a small taste of their work for the game.

We know you’re hungry for more – and trust us, we’re dying to share more with you. However, now it’s time to put our heads down and continue Jordan’s adventures.

On behalf of the entire Naughty Dog team: Thank you to all of our fans! Your support allows us to work on our dream games and bring these wonderful new worlds and characters to life. We can’t wait to show you more!

See you on the other side,

Neil Druckmann
