Naughty Dog Hiring For a New Single Player PS5 Game - News

Naughty Dog in June released The Last of Us Part II for the PlayStation 4. The developer has started hiring for a new single player game, which will most likely be released for Sony's next generation console, the PlayStation 5. 

A Tools Programmer job listing mentions the person who gets the job "will be working on our next generation graphics analysis, profiling and debugging tool in conjunction with our sister technology groups." With Naughty Dog being part of Sony's first-party lineup of studios, the game if it releases for the next generation will be for the PS5.

The Level / Environment Designer job listing specifically mentions the game will be "single player" and the designers are the "creative force behind our narrative-driven content, crafting engaging gameplay experiences through sequences of level setups they design and produce."

The job listing for the Melee / Gameplay Animator reveals Naughty Dog is hiring employees to work on future projects. "We are looking for talented animators to help us create compelling gameplay for our future project(s)," reads the job listing. "Work may include helping shape the hand-to-hand combat system and/or bringing the various enemy archetypes and supporting cast to life."

Naughty Dog Creative director Neil Druckmann has previously stated he isn't sure what the developer will be working on next. Whether it is The Last of Us Part III or the creation of an all new IP.

Probably a PS5 port of TLOU2. Considering how well the original sold on the PS4 back in 2014, I'd be hard pressed to blame them.

This is probably already been in development for a good time.

Can't trust Naughty Dog while Druckman is in charge.
