Naughty Dog game director, Vinit Agarwal, has confirmed that they are “still working on that game”.
The news came in an unrelated message on Twitter in which Agarwal celebrated clearing all of the Special Worlds in Super Mario Bros. Wonder.
“I did it! Wow, that was hard, easily 300+ Marios dead in the process,” Agarwal said.
And then, as if trying to offset any follow-up questions about the game Agarwal themselves was working on, they added: “And so this tweet can live on in peace… yes, I’m still working on that game”.

Agarwal has yet to follow up their message or respond to any of the dozens of comments left on the post, but it should be good news nonetheless for any players worried that, as some purport, the multiplayer game has been quietly canned.
