Naughty Dog Is Working On A Second Unannounced Game With Neil Druckmann As Producer
Naughty Dog‘s Neil Druckmann has revealed that he’s involved in a second unannounced project at the Uncharted developer in addition to his work on Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
Speaking on the Press X To Continue podcast, Druckmann revealed that Naughty Dog has multiple projects in the pipeline, and the unannounced title has him serving as a producer. He also revealed that Intergalactic shares multiple directors.
We have several directors on Intergalactic. I work with two game directors: Matthew Gallant and Kurt Margenau, [and] I have a co-writer in Clair Carré. So there are times when I’m away and they are in charge, and I get to come back and be surprised and enjoy certain choices they made, and other ones I pull my hair out over and we have to change course or argue about it.

Then there’s another game that’s being worked on at Naughty Dog where I’m in more of a producer role and I get to mentor, watch this other team, and give feedback and be the executive in the room. I enjoy all those roles, and the fact that I jump from one to the next makes my job very exciting and always feeling fresh. I’m never bored.
This of course begs the question: What is Naughty Dog working on? Well, an obvious suggestion is The Last of Us: Part III, which has been rumoured for some time now. According to previous reports, the third entry in the post-apocalyptic series is going to be released for PS5 but also has PS6 in mind, and will see the return of Ellie and introduce a series of new characters.
Beyond that, it has also been reported that Naughty Dog has been working on a mystery title for the past three years with Shaun Escayg at the helm, who previously worked on Uncharted: The Lost Legacy.
