Intergalactic: The Heretical Prophet is set to be the next big thing The last of us developed by Naughty Dog. The first new IP studios in over ten years, Intergalactic it also takes a different approach with its narrative premise compared to other Naughty Dog titles. But while it is to be expected IntergalacticWith a high sci-fi premise that allows for different storytelling, it doesn't need to be that far removed in tone or style from the company's previous releases.
Since the first release Uncharted Back in 2007, Naughty Dog emphasized high-fidelity graphics, well-tuned character animations, and top-notch acting, all in the service of creating a blockbuster-like experience. Naughty Dog games are often compared to movies, and while these comparisons can sometimes be reductive, there's definitely some truth behind them: Naughty Dog's stories are evocative and exciting, and their characters are engaging and friendly. Nowhere are these qualities more evident than in Uncharted series that carries a touch of an Indiana Jones adventure thanks to funny dialogues, likeable characters and ironic humor. From what is available about him so far, it seems so Intergalactic they could channel the same strengths.

Uncharted games are often relentlessly fun
Although it would not be entirely accurate to label Uncharted games like comedies definitely borrow a lot from this genre. Dramatic, high-stakes stories are a staple of these games, but the moment-to-moment narrative is typically lighthearted, almost aloof, with characters naturally riffing off one another to provide ample opportunity for jokes. It is through these tonal dimensions that Uncharted games pay homage to the like Indiana Jones and Mummywhich use comedy to balance the danger of their subversive plots.
