It has been over three years since Naughty Dog, the video game developer behind titles such as Uncharted and The Last of Us, has released a new game. While fans have enjoyed the remastered versions of these classic titles, the gaming community has been excited about what the studio might be working on next. A recent discovery on LinkedIn has revealed what the studio is working on.
Colin Lorimer, an illuminator and story artist at Naughty Dog, has indicated in his LinkedIn profile that he is “currently helping develop Naughty Dog’s latest IP.” This mention, in the “about” section and under his professional experiences.
Lorimer’s profile also notes his involvement in the now-canceled The Last of Us Online and his contributions as a story artist on HBO’s adaptation of The Last of Us. He has been a part of Naughty Dog since 2021, during which the studio has been relatively quiet about its new projects.

Speculation about a new IP from Naughty Dog isn’t entirely new. When The Last of Us Part 1 was launched for the PS5 in 2022, players discovered concept art that led to speculation about a new fantasy IP in development. There have also been leaks suggesting that The Last of Us Part 3 is underway at the studio.
