This game is gonna be so peak! I can't wait to see what they will do not chained to being grounded in mechanics and the environments anymore.

Yep

Always loved their games but one thing about them is that they are a little too grounded, even TLOU which had the ability to go crazy still only had the mega bloater rat boss or whatever as the craziest thing they did.

So their gameplay post-Uncharted always felt a little too confined. It's awesome for what it is, just doesn't have as much diversity and breadth.

I love a good Sci Fi game, so them being able to really flex their muscles on something new without any real boundaries is extremely exciting.

I also like what I am hearing about mix of Jak + Uncharted + TLOU

Jak - Hub based interconnected semi-open world
Uncharted - focus on AAA set pieces + mobility/traversal
TLOU - character and narrative focus

Will be cool to see it merge elements from all of these games
 
GAMEPLAY and STORY in 2027 but not mentioning the release window, makes me think it’s gonna be a 2028 title.

Probably so.

I also have a hunch that even if it is ready, it will be held back as a PS6 launch title (still releasing on PS5, but enhanced for PS6). So if PS6 is not ready for 2027, and intergalactic is, they will delay intergalactic to make it an event with the launch of PS6

I mean, this has to be their biggest prestige title this generation from their best developer. So they have to align it with PS6. It makes too much sense to have that synergy/hype together.

Yup! I got super excited when he referenced he wanted to bring in the Sci Fi fun nature of the Jak Games. I hope they go back and look at Uncharted 3 set pieces and take inspiration from that game. To this day those are still industry leading interactive / dynamic set pieces that even Uncharted 4 couldn't top.

And I wanna see them fully go ape shit with the deep physic based combat they perfected in TLOU 2.

How? He said ā€œit’s in the final stages of productionā€ and they’re polishing it. Final stages of production and polishing usually takes about a year.

Saying "we're going to see gameplay and story in 2027" makes it sound to me like they're only going to show the game off in 2027 and release it after that. Especially now that Laufey has been pushed back, since Sony doesn't really like to start the pre-release marketing cycle for a game before the previous big game is out. Makes it sound like Intergalactic marketing will start at SGF at the earliest, which seems a bit short notice for a late 2027 release of this scope. Like Wolverine for example had its big re-reveal in late 2025, almost a year before release. Laufey too will now be releasing more than a year after they revealed it.
 
It's a shame you can't modify the appearance of the main character. I also hope the game isn't so focused on excessive dialogue, exposition and endless forced walking that Sony games are famous for. God of War Ragnarok was an absolute bore for this reason.

Thee guys will look for any reason to complain. It's not his call to announce a release date or timeline. Sony will obviously wait till they flush out a certain games outta the marketing cycle before they refresh the marketing machine with Intergalactic and Media Molecules games next year.

"Complain" lmao. It's just stating an observation. And even if it wasn't, it's totally reasonable to complain about the fact that if they're not getting the game out by next year we literally went a full generation without a single Naughty Dog release. When they had 3-4 in every previous generation. It's ok to have some standards.

Nothing about what he says implied the game ain't coming next year lol. All he said is he will be showing off a lot of it next year which means marketing will start šŸ’€.

It's crazy to expect him casually drop a release timeline in a random interview when Sony has been very meticulous with how they announce release dates now.

Few months ago many of y'all would have said there was no way until dawn 2 would be dropping in January either.

They showed Spiderman 2 gameplay for the first time then released it 5 months later. Before they revealed Intergalactic, Neil said that when they do a reveal of their next game that it wouldn’t take long for them to release it. I know they revealed it in 2024, but I think they view the gameplay reveal as the proper reveal. Also. People like Jason Schreier said the game is on track to release next year.

People forget that we didn’t get to see Spiderman 2 gameplay until it was 5 months away from release. This is what PS does now. I think it will be a November launch.

Yep, it could mean they have planned a gameplay reveal around March/Spring (pretty likely in the PS6 games reveal somewhere a bit before Laufey release, passing the main marketing torch) and a planned release late 2027 for the PS6 release as crossgen launch title, or early 2028 if there's a last minute delay.

Yup! Sony have such a packed 2027. They certainly will try to avoid cannibalizing their own games. They gotta get out Until Dawn 2, MLB, Kena and Laufey in the first 6 months.

I'ma assuming this well get announced in the June SOP or Games Fest
