Jason Schreier has shared another truth bomb about another Sony studio.
A day after revealing that Horizon Hunters Gathering was rebooted, he said this on YouTube:
So, The Last of Us Online, that game was cancelled. A lot of people at Naughty Dog were working on that game. I think there’s a belief out there that it was just kind of a side project while most people were working on Intergalactic. No, the opposite is true.
Intergalactic did not have the majority of stuff until after Last of Us Online was cancelled. And then most people on the studio came over to work on Intergalactic.
The Last of Us Online’s game director Vinit Agarwal claimed that the game was in development for seven years. There’s also a rumor that Naughty Dog is also working on Uncharted and The Last of Us 3, but in different stages of development.
That puts Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet under extreme pressure. Schreier reported earlier that it won’t be releasing until after this year.
What this all adds up to is that PlayStation 5 may end up being the one PlayStation that doesn’t get an original Naughty Dog game.
