The gaming community was abuzz with excitement and curiosity when Neil Druckmann announced his latest project, *Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet*. It's only recently that we've been given a glimpse into the game's intriguing setting, thanks to Druckmann's appearance on the Creator to Creator show.
*Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet* unfolds in an alternate future, branching off from our timeline in the late ‘80s. The narrative introduces a new religion that rises to prominence within the Intergalactic universe. Naughty Dog has meticulously crafted the lore of this religion, detailing its journey from the emergence of its first prophet through to its subsequent evolutions and distortions.
This religion originates and thrives on a solitary planet, which over time, becomes isolated from the rest of the galaxy. The protagonist of the game crash-lands on this very planet, finding herself utterly alone. Survival in this desolate environment forms one of the game's core themes. Druckmann highlighted that, unlike previous Naughty Dog titles where players often had a companion, *Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet* challenges players to navigate and solve the mysteries of the planet solo, should they wish to find a way to escape.
Despite being in development for four years, there's still no word on a release date for *Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet*. Fans will need to stay tuned for further updates as they eagerly await more information on this highly anticipated game.
