Naughty Dog Studio, renowned for The Last of Us and Uncharted, has announced the development of a new single-player game. The statement appeared on the company’s official Twitter account, signaling a pivot toward a fresh, story-driven experience that diverges from its recent online project.
In the same communication, Naughty Dog confirmed ongoing work on the online project tied to The Last of Us series, but with no fixed release timeline. A Bloomberg report clarifies that the studio is reevaluating its approach to the online game, following a cautious assessment from the Destiny creators at Bungie. The feedback prompted a shift in focus and an emphasis on making steady progress under Sony’s broader strategic umbrella.
Additionally, the studio indicated that the team is concentrating on a new single-player endeavor. Bloomberg notes that a sizable portion of personnel who previously worked on the online The Last of Us project has been reassigned to the new title. The company pledged to share more concrete information about the project as plans crystallize and timelines become clearer.
Earlier coverage from socialbites.ca mentioned a prominent insider reportedly revealing details about Sony PlayStation Project Q, a portable console initiative. This background context underscores Sony’s broader ecosystem push, even as Naughty Dog pivots to a compelling single-player narrative that could redefine its creative trajectory for the next generation of PlayStation hardware and experiences.
