We don't really know much about Naughty Dog's new game yet. According to new rumors, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet could have a lot more of Dead Space than Star Wars.
The announcement of Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet was met with mixed reactions. On the one hand, there were the fans of the development studio Naughty Dog, who were happy about fresh food from the game company. On the other hand, some people cannot get used to the science fiction setting and the strong advertising for Porsche and Adidas. And then there is the loud minority who are offended by the main character's appearance.

We don't yet know what kind of game Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet will actually be. Naughty Dog itself speaks of the usual deep narrative experience and the “most profound gameplay” the studio has seen to date, whatever that means.
A little background information now reveals interesting details. While the trailer strikes a more humorous tone with its 80s music and the quick sayings of the main character Jordan A. Mun, other clues now point to a horror title.
The photographer and cyberpunk horror artist Tye Martinez is involved in Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. What exactly he contributes to the game is currently not clear. But it might not necessarily be something for the happy-go-lucky.
A recent Instagram post by visual artist Colin Lorimer is fitting. In this he only shows the well-known trailer of the title, the interesting information can be found in the hashtags of the post. Because #horror can also be found here as a category.
A scary approach definitely suits Naughty Dog, because The Last of Us isn't necessarily made for sensitive natures. Space and horror go together like Necromorphs and plasma cutters anyway. Let's wait and see when the studio itself releases concrete information.
A new brand from Naughty Dog? Here is the first trailer for Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet!
