Summary
- The initial reveal trailer for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet has a ton of hidden information packed in it.
- In the latest batch of discoveries, fans realized that Jordan’s laser sword has wavelengths that resemble that of audio.
- Music will seemingly play a major role in the game, leading some to believe that the playlist will shape the literal size and effects of the blade.
For a trailer that clocks in exactly at 4:33 long, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet, the newest IP from Naughty Dog, which was revealed during Thursday night’s The Game Awards presentation, sure packs a ton of information.
Since Thursday’s unveiling, fans have already begun piecing together who will be part of the main cast besides Tati Gabrielle. That list seemingly includes Kumail Nanjiani, Tony Dalton and Stephen A. Chang, among others.
Now, gamers have discovered that the laser sword shown at the end of the trailer has a blade that closely resembles that of actual audio wavelengths.

As discovered by a user on Twitter, a close-up look of Jordan’s blade reveals that its pattern isn’t entirely symmetrical. No. Rather, the blade itself has highs and lows, the same way an audio wavelength does.
Check it out:
The user has theorized that perhaps the in-game playlist and what song is playing will determine the blade’s length and abilities. If that does end up being the case, it would definitely allow players to tailor their playstyle to what they particularly like to listen to. It may also force players to listen to different types of music all for an in-game benefit.
These aren’t out-of-left-field theories, either. As the trailer demonstrated, music will seemingly play a key role in the game. There were several moments in the trailer dedicated to close-up shots of the jukebox, equalizer, as well as the CD that ultimately is chosen by the protagonist.
Only time will tell what is real in the end. That said, for an initial reveal trailer, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is surely filled with tons of references and teases.
