Speaking with Finder, Naughty Dog's Arne Meyer said that while the studio isn't sure of how long the current hardware generation will be around for, he's confident that the California-based developer will be able to release at least one more game for Sony's current-gen console. What that is, however, remains to be seen, as Meyer wouldn't go into any details on Naughty Dog's next title following Uncharted 4: A Thief's End.
"I would hope so. I would hope we would release a game pretty soon. Yeah, our development cycles arent too long so and I have no idea how long this console generation really is going to last, but, yeah, theres no doubt it should be in this console generation for sure. Im sure theres some big master plan somewhere, in terms of what the cycles are. We usually find out about the new hardware once theyre actually ready to give us development kits even if theyre early. We dont know ahead of time when that cycle ends, we just have to focus on making the best game we can on the hardware we do have.
"I mean I have no doubt – I dont know what the timelines are – but we have at least one, maybe two games left in the console generation, maybe more. Clearly we can release a game really late in a console generation and do well, right?"
