Troy Baker Will Be in the Next Naughty Dog Game

As a gamer with over a decade of gaming experience under my belt, I can confidently say that Troy Baker is one of the most iconic voices in the industry today. His performances as Joel Miller in The Last of Us and Sam Drake in Uncharted 4 were nothing short of extraordinary. It’s always exciting to see him associated with new projects, especially when it comes to Naughty Dog and Neil Druckmann, whose collaborations have consistently produced masterpieces.


It’s still uncertain what Naughty Dog’s upcoming game entails, but we can confirm with certainty that actor Troy Baker will be part of it.

Toby Flenderson is known for being one of the most productive voice actors throughout video game history. For Naughty Dog, he played the roles of Joel Miller in the series of “The Last of Us” and Sam Drake, Nate’s elder brother, in “Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End”. Additionally, he made a brief appearance in HBO’s “The Last of Us” television show.

Elsewhere from Naughty Dog, Baker portrayed Booker DeWitt in 2013’s “BioShock Infinite” and is set to appear again in the next project by “BioShock” creator Ken Levine, titled “Judas“. He takes on the role of Indiana Jones for the upcoming film “Indiana Jones and the Great Circle ” as none other than Dr. Jones himself.

The information originates from an article about Baker in GQ magazine, which discusses his friendship with Neil Druckmann, the creator of ‘The Last of Us’. According to Druckmann, Baker is a challenging actor. He attempts to push the boundaries of what this project is and frequently manages to surpass Druckmann’s own imaginative expectations. When it comes to casting Baker in his future projects, Druckmann finds it an obvious choice. In an instant, he would gladly collaborate with Baker again.

Information regarding Druckmann and Naughty Dog’s actions is relatively sparse. However, after Sony mistakenly attributed a statement to Druckmann, the renowned developer clarified the matter publicly.

Currently, I am engrossed in a novel undertaking. This project has stirred more enthusiasm within me than any other before, yet I must keep its details under wraps to avoid displeasing our superiors. It’s not just the game we are creating that excites me – it represents uncharted territory for us – but I am equally intrigued to observe the global response when it’s unveiled.

Neil Druckmann is aware that his public profile has expanded due to the acclaim HBO has received for The Last of Us. The series has attracted a fresh audience who were previously unaware of his games, and they’re eagerly anticipating what he and Naughty Dog will create next.

As a dedicated fan, I can’t help but speculate about what lies ahead for Naughty Dog. Having poured their efforts into The Last of Us Online, they unfortunately decided to halt its development in December 2023. This decision was made with the understanding that it might mean fewer single-player narrative games from them – a creative style that has consistently set Naughty Dog apart.

HBO will release season two of The Last of Us in 2025.
