Neil Druckmann Unannounced Game

Neil Druckmann, the creative director of The Last of Us, recently revealed that Naughty Dog is working on another game in addition to Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.

He shared this in a podcast called Press X to Continue, where he also mentioned that he is not directly leading this new project but is instead taking on the role of a producer and supervisor.

During the podcast, he shared that in this role, he mentors the team, observes their progress, provides feedback, and acts as an executive figure. He finds this variety in his work exciting, as it keeps things fresh and prevents him from getting bored.

He said, “There’s another game that’s being worked on in Naughty Dog where I’m more of a producer role and I get to mentor and and watch this other team and give feedback and be like the executive in the room I enjoy all those roles.”

Unfortunately, no additional details were provided about the new game, leaving its exact genre unclear. While some might speculate that it’s The Last of Us Part 3, Neil Druckmann previously stated in an interview, ‘Don’t bet on there being more of Last of Us,’ suggesting that this is not the case. Could this be another new IP just like Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet? Or maybe Naughty Dog is finally ready to relaunch Jak & Daxter again? One can hope.

In other Naughty Dog news, Jeremy Huxley, former Senior Environmental Artist at Naughty Dog, stated that Resident Evil 4 inspired Uncharted, Gears of War, and many other action games.

It’s definitely not TLOU3. As you said, he made it clear there weren’t currently and might never be plans just a while ago. Hopefully it’s another new IP. What they’ve shown of Intergalactic is pretty bad, so I’m not exactly pumped for that.
