Uncharted 4 and TLOU Director to announce new project at The Game Awards

With the 2025 Game Awards less than 24 hours away, Geoff Keighley and co. have increasingly teased its line-up of game announcements planned for the upcoming show. Alongside the likes of Saros, the new Tomb Raider and more, The Game Awards is set to give us our first look at the next project from ex-Naughty Dog director Bruce Straley.

Taking to Twitter to tease the project, Game Awards creator Geoff Keighley confirmed that the upcoming show will feature “the announcement of the first game from Wildflower Interactive.”

While we’ve yet to get a name for the project, the brief video released alongside the announcement shows off what appears to be a rather stylised game – quite different to anything we’ve seen from Naughty Dog.

For the uninitiated, Bruce Straley started working at Naughty Dog all the way back during the Crash Bandicoot era, slowly rising the ranks and eventually going on to co-direct Uncharted 2, The Last of Us and Uncharted 4 – before ultimately leaving the studio in 2017.

Since then, we’ve heard very little from Straley, with Wildflower Interactive remaining relatively under the radar since its founding in 2021. That said, this unnamed project was previously confirmed to be “small-ish, creatively-charged [and] uniquely-stylized” in nature.

Whatever it winds up being, we won’t have to wait long to find out, with The Game Awards officially going live later tonight at a little bit past midnight in the UK.
