On November 13, Neil Druckmann participated in a panel discussion, where Ken Levine was also one of the speakers. However, the video recording of the conversation was quickly hidden on YouTube after it began gaining attention online. However, some users managed to watch it beforehand and confirmed the details.

According to those who managed to watch the video, Druckmann shared that Naughty Dog has been working on its new game under his leadership for four years. Viewers also noted Druckmann’s comments that Sony decides when the game will be officially announced. However, it’s known that the studio is working on several projects, including multiple single-player titles.

It seems likely that Sony intends to announce the studio's next title closer to its release date to avoid delays, a strategy the company used with Ghost of Yotei. That game was revealed in September 2024, targeting a 2025 launch.

Beyond gaming, Druckmann has also ventured into television. In spring 2025, the second season of The Last of Us series will premiere, featuring an episode directed by the developer himself.
