There’s a number of first-party PlayStation studios whose next projects are currently shrouded in mystery, but a recent trademark filing might just be proof of one of them that has yet to be officially announced.
As spotted by Gematsu, earlier this week, on February 12, Sony Interactive Entertainment (i.e. PlayStation) filed a trademark for “Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet” in the United States, with the filing’s description describing it as ” video game software”.
That, of course, is a name we haven’t heard before, and would suggest that it’s a new sci-fi IP in the works at a Sony-owned studio. Among PlayStation’s lineup of developers, Firesprite is currently likely to be working on a AAA sci-fi horror game, based on job listings published by Fabrik Games, which is owned by Firesprite.
Meanwhile, leaks have also suggested that Outriders developer is working on a PlayStation-exclusive sci-fi third-person shooter RPG codenamed RED. Might Intergalactic The Heretic Prophet be the official name of either one of these titles, or is it perhaps something else entirely? How long it’ll be before Sony makes any related official announcement remains to be seen, but we’ll keep an eye out for more details, so stay tuned.
