Actor Praise
Troy Baker has teased that Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is testing the bounds of what Naughty Dog is capable of, telling fans that they are going to have their minds blown.
The actor, who is also featured in the studio's new sci-fi adventure, talked about what the studio is cooking up during an appearance at Ottawa Comiccon in Ontario, Canada.
You guys are going to have your minds blown, he said. Covering his mouth and closing his eyes, he added, You are not ready. You are not ready. It's so good.
Cast and Production
Baker noted that Naughty Dog recently wrapped shooting performance capture for the studio's new IP, highlighting star Tati Gabrielle and her work as main character Jordan A. Mun.
I don't know how writer and director Neil Druckmann found two amazing actors, he added, referencing previous casting choices. He found Ashley for Ellie, and he found Tati for Jordan. It's like, what? How do you do that?
She is the spiritual successor. There is so much about Jordan and that game of Intergalactic that feels like... man, I feel all of it. I feel Uncharted, I feel The Last of Us, I feel something new. They are testing the bounds of what that studio is capable of.
Development Status
Very little has been revealed about Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet since Naughty Dog first showcased it at The Game Awards 2024. Druckmann previously called the new game incredible and stepped away from external media projects to focus on development.
Despite being described as the most ambitious game the team has made to date, concrete details remain scarce and a firm release date has not yet been announced.
With performance capture recently wrapped, progress continues moving steadily ahead for the PlayStation developer as fans await further updates.
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet currently lacks an official launch schedule, though convention appearances continue to offer minor insights into the studio's future.
We'll see, Baker said regarding future projects.
