Sony is not in a great position for 2024. With a lackluster catalog of titles during 2023, and even more lackluster for 2024, it doesn’t seem like the company has big plans for the console. In fact, this is what the COO of Sony hinted at during the last shareholders meeting, confirming that Sony’s big titles will not return to the console, at least, until 2025. But it seems that something might be cooking behind the scenes.
On February 12th, Sony Interactive Entertainment, the gaming branch of Sony, registered the name Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet in the United States. As of today, there is no information regarding any video game called that or any other similar name. This is unusual for PlayStation, as they usually do not register game names before their announcement, but it may also put us on the list of something. Sony’s COO has stated that no major titles from established franchises will be released. Leaving the door open for new IP titles, such as potentially this Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet.
Of course, we cannot confirm anything about it. All that is known so far is the name and nothing else. The registration does not allow to know any data beyond the name, although if we listen to old rumors, one of PlayStation’s studios would be working on a science fiction shooter in the style of Mass Effect. So, until they reveal exactly what it is, perhaps 2024 is not as empty as they have painted it.
