Naughty Dog unveiled Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, its first authentic venture in over a decade, at The Game Awards, and director Neil Druckman has teased us with some extra particulars concerning the upcoming story.
We already know some particulars: the sport is ready in a far-away retro future, centered across the mysterious planet Sempiria, which is reduce off from the remainder of the universe. It stars Tati Gabrielle as Jordan A. Mun, a bounty hunter on a mission to the celestial physique to unravel its secrets and techniques.
Druckmann tells the New York Times that the “bold” story revolves round a fictitious faith and explores “what occurs while you put your religion in several establishments.”
This type of story looks like the following step for Naughty Dog and its exploration of this theme, following The Last of Us: Part 2 and its battle between the cult-like Seraphites and militaristic WLF. That story was impressed by Druckmann’s experiences rising up in an Israeli settlement in Palestine’s occupied West Bank, so he might be drawing on related recollections for Intergalactic.
Druckman additionally spoke to the NYT about actor Tati Gabrielle (with feedback through Fandom Pulse). “She has this intimidating presence to her. We introduced her in for an audition, and he or she blew us away. It was a kind of moments — like once I first noticed Ashley Johnson as Ellie,” he says.
She already labored with Naughty Dog on the movie adaptation of Uncharted, taking part in Jo Braddock, and can painting Nora within the second season of HBO’s The Last of Us. I first noticed her work in The 100, the place she performs Gaia, a fanatical devotee of a faith that seems to have completely different origins to these she initially believed, so Intergalactic’s story must be good for her.
There’s no launch date for Intergalactic simply but, so why not try the greatest Uncharted video games when you anticipate Naughty Dog’s new venture?
