According to Ben Hanson, the founder of independent media outlet MinnMax, he recently received some intriguing details from a source involved in Naughty Dog’s new project. On his podcast, Hanson discussed how Naughty Dog’s next game—without revealing its name—will “offer an unprecedented level of player freedom.” While he didn’t name a specific game as a comparison, he did clarify that it would not be like the Hitman series.

Naughty Dog’s focus on player freedom isn’t new. Last year, studio head Neil Druckmann expressed the desire to embrace “less traditional storytelling.” Druckmann referenced his admiration for games like Elden Ring, which engage players through exploration rather than linear storytelling. In an interview with The Washington Post, Druckmann mentioned how games that avoid relying heavily on traditional narrative structures have captivated his interest.

He elaborated, saying, “Some of the best narrative moments in The Last of Us happen through gameplay, by exploring the environment and piecing together its backstory. The type of games that trust players to figure things out on their own are what I’m most interested in right now.”

Currently, Naughty Dog is reportedly working on more than one single-player game, though no specific details have been revealed. As one of Sony’s most trusted studios, Naughty Dog is also facing high expectations for a new installment in The Last of Us franchise. We’ll be keeping you updated with the latest news as it unfolds.
