The gaming community has been buzzing with excitement and curiosity since Neil Druckmann announced his latest project, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. The first details about the game's setting were recently shared on the Creator to Creator show, giving fans a glimpse into the world Naughty Dog has been meticulously crafting.
Set in an alternate future that diverges from our reality starting in the late '80s, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet introduces a universe where a new religion rises to dominance. Naughty Dog dedicated several years to developing the rich lore of this religion, tracing its journey from the emergence of its first prophet through its subsequent transformations and distortions.
The narrative unfolds on a single planet where this religion originates and spreads, eventually leading to the planet's isolation from the rest of the galaxy. The protagonist, crash-landing on this secluded world, finds herself utterly alone. Survival in this desolate environment becomes the game's central theme. Unlike previous Naughty Dog titles, which often included a companion for the player to interact with, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet challenges players to navigate and survive without any guidance, emphasizing a solitary journey to escape the planet.
Despite being in development for four years, no release date has been announced yet. Fans eager for more information will need to stay tuned for future updates from Naughty Dog.
