Leaker shared new information about upcoming Naughty Dog games.
Project Reveals from Naughty Dog
Naughty Dog is one of Sony’s most successful studios and it developed such a successful games like The Last of Us and Uncharted. Because of their success, players are looking forward to see more games from Naughty Dog. Meanwhile, one leaker shared more information about upcoming Naughty Dog games.
The source in this leak is Twitter used called Silknigth, who has only been active on social media since January 2024 but has already developed a solid reputation as someone who shares credible insights. Their biggest scoop to date concerned the Ghost of Tsushima PC port, on whose existence they first insisted in late February before correctly leaking the date of its announcement, March 6, a day in advance.
Silknigth has now once again taken to Twitter to chime in on the recent speculation about the Horizon Forbidden West sequel, which some fans were hoping to see announced this spring. That may not necessarily happen, with the leaker claiming that the third mainline Horizon game “will take a bit longer to be revealed” in an April 4 tweet. Responding to a question from one of their followers, Silknigth also said that Naughty Dog’s currently active project isn’t The Last of Us 3, but a brand new IP.
The leaker subsequently clarified that Naughty Dog is still working on The Last of Us 3, just that the project itself hasn’t yet entered “full production,” unlike the mysterious new IP that the studio is said to be developing right now. The claim tracks with what Naughty Dog President Neil Druckmann said in Grounded 2, the recently released documentary on the making of the second entry in the post apocalyptic franchise. The film includes a segment in which Druckmann reveals that he indeed came up with a concept for The Last of Us Part 3 following much deliberation, thus essentially confirming that the game will happen at some point.
As for the Horizon 3, although Silknigth did not specify exactly when the game may finally be revealed, that still looks likely to happen at some point in 2024. With Sony itself confirming this year won’t see it release any new entries in its established franchises, the company will at least reveal their game a little to make players at least a little curious about their upcoming game.
Guerrilla did confirmed that Horizon 3 is happening back in April 2023, it’s plausible the studio will indeed have something to show before the end of 2024. In the meantime, South Korean company NCSoft has long been rumored to be working on a Horizon MMO, codenamed Project Skyline, which could also be treated to a reveal in the near future.
