At the Game Awards, Naughty Dog finally presented a new game with Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. While the trailer is certainly polarizing, the studio has a lot of hope for the project. This is also proven by the immense number of developers who were involved.
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet has been in development for over four years now. During this period, tons of people were involved in the game, as Neil Druckmann, Naughty Dog's studio head, explained in an interview with the New York Times.
According to him, over 250 developers have worked on Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet over the past four years. If you thought this was crazy, brace yourself. Because these are only Naughty Dog employees; external employees are not included in this calculation.
According to Druckmann, the game is correspondingly ambitious, and the studio is once again placing particular focus on the story. This is about a fictitious religion and the problems when you put your trust in various institutions. It's all very vague.
But we at least know a little more specifically who our main character is and where we are going. You slip into the shoes of bounty hunter Jordan A. Mun. She ends up stranded on Sempiria, a planet whose communication with the rest of the universe was lost centuries ago.
Of all people, the main character is now causing malicious comments. She doesn't look feminine enough, Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet is "woke", all of these stupid comments can be found under the trailer, which is why Naughty Dog deactivated the comment column. Tati Gabrielle, who lends her face and voice to Jordan, announced her joy about the role on social media and her fans support her and are really looking forward to Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. So there are still nice people.
