Naughty Dog’s announcement of Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet at The Game Awards 2024 stunned audiences with its bold departure from the studio’s more grounded work on Uncharted and The Last of Us. While Uncharted has effectively wrapped up Nathan Drake’s story, The Last of Us Part 2 left its narrative open-ended, leaving many hoping for a Part 3 reveal. Instead, Intergalactic takes center stage as an exciting new IP that could deliver impressive melee combat.
