Saros will be about the same.<\/p>\n<p>However, Sony has already confirmed two games for 2026 \u2014 the aforementioned Saros, launching in March, and Marvel&#8217;s Wolverine, arriving in the Fall.<\/p>\n<p>Given how Sony has been pacing out its first party releases, we&#8217;re more inclined to think that Intergalactic is being reserved for 2027.<\/p>\n<p>This would go against that rule of announcing things closer to when they&#8217;re done, but this <em>is<\/em> Naughty Dog, a studio notorious for delays and perfectionism.<\/p>\n<p>If it&#8217;s getting into quality assurance and localisation now, we can imagine the team polishing and polishing this game until it&#8217;s spotless, and that could well take them into the year after next.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it&#8217;s always interesting to think about these things, and who knows? Maybe Intergalactic really will launch sooner than we think.<\/p>\n<p>What do you reckon?
