Naughty Dog first revealed its next game, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, almost two years ago at the 2024 Game Awards. In the many months since the sci-fi adventure was announced, the studio has been incredibly quiet. Now the game is showing some signs of life, with a familiar face from some of the studio’s biggest games joining the cast of Intergalactic.
Actor Robin Atkin Downes posted to his X account on Aug. 20 to reveal his involvement in Naughty Dog’s next game, saying “I’ve been keeping this one quiet for a while.” The short post also includes a silly video of Downes donning a motion capture suit while the Baha Men’s “Who Let the Dogs Out” plays.
Naughty Dog fans may recognize Downes, as the studio has a long relationship with him. The actor first worked with the legendary developer on 2007’s Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune, where he portrayed antagonist Atoq Navarro. He would then go on to play Tenzin in Uncharted 2, Talbot in Uncharted 3, Vincent Perez in Uncharted: Golden Abyss (remember the PlayStation Vita?), Robert in The Last of Us, and Hector Alcazar in Uncharted 4. You may notice that Downes plays a lot of villains. Could that be a hint to his role in Intergalactic?
