The studio’s PlayStation 5 output has so far consisted of remasters of its PlayStation 4 games (including 2020’s The Last Of Us Part 2) and a full remake of the first The Last Of Us.
While The Last Of Us is still a hot commodity thanks to the TV show, Naughty Dog’s next project is not The Last Of Us Part 3 but rather a new 80s inspired sci-fi IP entitled Intergalatic: The Heretic Prophet.
Admittedly, Naughty Dog was meant to release a The Last Of Us multiplayer game, after it opted to cut multiplayer from The Last Of Us Part 2.
Considering Santa Monica Studio has been making almost nothing but God Of War games since 2005, everyone expects the studio to be working on another sequel next.
It would’ve also been one of Sony’s many planned live service games, but it was cancelled so Naughty Dog could stick with making single-player games.
