We believe these stories are worth telling,&#8221; Druckmann said.<\/p>\n<p>Though the idea of two The Last of Us projects is exciting, fans have reason to keep their guard up. Naughty Dog was hard at work on a multiplayer The Last of Us game for years before it was eventually canceled. There&#8217;s no guarantee these projects will ever be seen by the public.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- No AdsNinja v10 Client! --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"naughty-dog-gives-an-official-update-on-intergalactic-the-heretic-prophet\">\n                        Naughty Dog gives an official update on Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet<br \/>\n               <\/h2>\n<p>Those two The Last of Us projects aren&#8217;t all that Naughty Dog has in the works. Its next game is <em>Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet<\/em> (say that just one time fast), which debuted at the 2024 Game Awards. Druckmann said the team is &#8220;heads down&#8221; on <em>Intergalactic<\/em>, which is becoming the studio&#8217;s &#8220;most ambitious game yet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As such, don&#8217;t expect to hear anything more about it soon as the studio is being tight-lipped for the rest of 2026. &#8220;In 2027, that changes. We\u2019ll fully reveal <em>Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet<\/em> and give you a proper look at Jordan\u2019s wild sci-fi adventure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you take Druckmann at his word, that means we shouldn&#8217;t expect any new trailer for <em>Intergalactic<\/em> at this year&#8217;s upcoming Game Awards. Sony usually holds States of Play in February and June, so it&#8217;s possible <em>Intergalactic<\/em> might show up at one of them next year.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                              \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"naughty-dog-intergalactic-the-heretic-prophet-robert-atkins-downes-casting\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<p>                        <img width=\"440\" height=\"248\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Jordan Mun, the protagonist of Naughty Dog's Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, as she drinks soda out of a straw.\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/igthp.JPG?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.polygonimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/igthp.JPG?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=124&amp;dpr=2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>Related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \">\n<p>\t\t\tNaughty Dog adds an Uncharted vet to new game Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet<\/p>\n<\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">A familiar face reunites with the studio<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polygon.com\/naughty-dog-the-last-of-us-two-new-projects-intergalactic-update-2027\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Naughty Dog celebrated The Last of Us Day on Monday.
