Intergalactic, new Neil Druckmann game, will be about religion and solitude

Neil Druckmann's highly anticipated Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet has finally revealed some details about its intriguing setting, unveiled during a recent appearance on the Creator to Creator show. The game plunges players into an alternate future diverging from our own timeline in the late 1980s. At the heart of this world lies a new, dominant religion that has spread across the Intergalactic universe. Naughty Dog has invested years crafting the rich lore of this faith, from its origins with its first prophet to its subsequent evolution and distortions.

This religion's birthplace is a single, isolated planet, now completely severed from the rest of the galaxy. It's on this very planet that the protagonist crash-lands, finding herself utterly alone and facing the daunting challenge of survival. This stark isolation is a central theme of the game, a departure from previous Naughty Dog titles which often featured companions. In Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, players must navigate this alien world and solve its mysteries entirely independently—if they hope to escape.

Despite four years of development, a release date for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet remains elusive. For now, fans will have to patiently await further announcements.
