Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet hits new development milestone

Officially unveiled back in late 2024, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is the next game from industry giants Naughty Dog – serving as the studio’s first new IP since 2013’s The Last of Us. While we have yet to receive anything more than the initial teaser trailer, Naughty Dog may be gearing up for some impending reveals; with Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet officially hitting a new major development milestone.

Taking to BlueSky to make the announcement, the official Naughty Dog page published the following: “‘See you, space cowboy…’ That is a wrap on the very ambitious Intergalactic cinematic shoot! This cast killed it! Cannot wait to show you their incredible work when the time is right!.”

Of course, while the actual game aspect of Intergalactic is what matters most, Naughty Dog’s titles are known for their abundance of high quality cutscenes and mo-cap making this latest announcement certainly worthy of note.

Additionally, though it differs from team-to-team, motion capture and cinematics are typically completed later into a game’s production cycle, suggesting that Intergalactic could be a solid way through its development.

As mentioned, we’ve seen and heard little from the project since its initial 2024 unveiling. That said, insiders have claimed in the past that Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is targeting a 2027 release. Assuming this to be true, hopefully we will get to see more from the game sooner rather than later; perhaps during this year’s Game Awards?
