Naughty Dog Promises a Full Reveal of Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet in 2027

In a post published September 28, 2026 on Naughty Dog's official blog marking the end of Last of Us Day, Neil Druckmann announces the studio will stay quiet about Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet for the rest of 2026, ahead of a full reveal in 2027.

"We're going to be quiet for the rest of this year. In 2027, that changes," Druckmann writes. "We'll fully reveal Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet and give you a proper look at Jordan's wild sci-fi adventure." The post doesn't specify whether that reveal will cover gameplay specifically, only promising a "proper look" at the protagonist's story.

What we already know about the game

Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet was announced at The Game Awards on December 12, 2024. It follows Jordan, a bounty hunter stranded on a distant planet, in what Druckmann calls the studio's "most ambitious game" yet. An early look hinted at close-quarters melee combat, but no detailed gameplay has been shown so far.

Other Last of Us projects in the works

The same post also mentions two new The Last of Us projects, described as being at a "very early" stage of development and meant to expand the series' canon beyond Part I and Part II, with no further details given.
