Every object on screen in the announcement trailer, identified and explained.

Gear and Accessories

The Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet announcement trailer spends four and a half minutes building a world before it shows a single enemy. Half that time belongs to objects: a ship, a blade, a monitor, a disc player, and the everyday clutter of someone who lives in a cockpit. This page collects every piece of gear that appears on screen, in the order it appears, and says what Naughty Dog has confirmed or hinted about each one.

This is not a loadout guide. The game has not shipped. What appears below comes only from the announcement film, official PlayStation Blog descriptions, and on-the-record interviews with Naughty Dog. No item exists here because a thumbnail guessed it would.

Porsche-branded spacecraft

The ship Jordan flies is readable as a Porsche design. It is twin-engine, red, and sized for one pilot and cargo. The cabin layout — screen, bunks, clutter — suggests a vessel built for long solo hauls, not a luxury cruiser. Naughty Dog has not published a ship name, a manufacturer, or a model number. The Porsche branding is visible on the hull and is the only confirmed brand partnership in the footage.

Druckmann has said the team wanted Jordan’s ship to feel like home, which is why the cabin contains anime, a disc player, and personal effects rather than a sterile cockpit. That philosophy extends to the gameplay: the ship is where she regroups between missions, not a fast-travel menu.

For the hunt that opens the story, jump to Jordan A. Mun. For the planet she crashes onto, the Sempiria page has the orbital images.

Red waveform energy blade

Jordan’s primary weapon is a close-range energy blade whose edge looks like stacked audio waveforms. In the trailer finale she ignites it against a robot carrying a beam axe, then leaps and strikes mid-air. That sequence is the combat thesis in one shot: athletic, melee-first, and visually distinctive.

Naughty Dog has not named the blade, confirmed whether it is a standard bounty-hunter tool or a custom piece, or said whether it has upgrade paths. The visual language — red, linear, oscillating — suggests audio or energy physics as the source. The waveform edge is also the clearest link between Jordan’s weapon and the Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross score, which is built from industrial textures and oscillating synthesis.

The blade does not appear to fold or store on Jordan’s body in the footage shown. How she carries it between encounters is not yet shown. Read gameplay for what the melee-first design might mean for encounter pacing.

Robot beam axe

The antagonist in the shown combat sequence is a heavy, blade-wielding robot that carries what looks like a beam axe — a melee weapon with an energy edge, mirroring Jordan’s own blade. It meets her in the air. That symmetry is deliberate: Naughty Dog is showing you that the planet’s defenders can match the hunter’s tool.

No enemy bestiary exists. The robot’s design — bipedal, armoured, deliberate — is the only confirmed enemy type. Whether it is automated security, a religious artefact, or industrial equipment left running is not confirmed. The gameplay page treats it as the first-hour fantasy, not the full beastiary.

AJ’s monitor and communication gear

AJ appears on a wall-mounted monitor inside Jordan’s ship. The screen is large enough to fill a wall section, which suggests a dedicated comms station rather than a portable tablet. AJ’s side shows a one-eyed avatar; Jordan’s side shows the ship’s interior. The conversation about Sempiria’s 600-year silence is the plot hook of the trailer.

Halley Gross plays AJ. The cast page has the full credit. AJ’s role as a remote agent is the closest thing to a companion the trailer confirms — though the design goal of isolation means that monitor relationship is not the same as having someone in the room. The compared page explains why that distinction matters.

Sony disc player and Pet Shop Boys needle drop

Jordan cues Pet Shop Boys’ “It’s a Sin” on a Sony disc player. The song choice is diegetic: it plays in the cabin as part of Jordan’s personal culture, not as a scored track laid over the film. Druckmann has said he looked for a 1980s song about faith and chose “It’s a Sin” for that reason. The soundtrack page explains why that matters for the story.

The disc player itself is a period-accurate 1980s piece in an alternate timeline where space travel is normal by 1986. It is not a joke about old technology — it is part of the world’s texture.

Anime on the cabin screen

A screen inside the ship shows anime. Druckmann has cited Cowboy Bebop and Akira as tone references. The cabin screen is a visual signal that anime is part of Jordan’s cultural world, not a product-placement note. Which specific series appears is not confirmed by Naughty Dog. The story primer covers why 1980s culture sits at the root of the alternate timeline.

Adidas sneakers

Jordan wears Adidas sneakers inside the ship. This is not a sponsorship note — it is world-building. The alternate 1980s timeline means Adidas, Sony, and Porsche all exist in a world that kept going to space. The sneakers are part of the same visual language as the disc player and the anime screen: ordinary culture in an extraordinary setting.

Cockpit HUD

The ship’s heads-up display shows orbital information, navigation data, and a view of the shattered moon from inside the cockpit glass. The HUD design is clean and minimal — the kind of interface Naughty Dog uses to imply technology without cluttering the frame. No HUD element has been confirmed as a gameplay mechanic. The gameplay page treats the shown combat as inference, not as confirmed UI.

What is not on screen

No weapon other than the blade and the robot’s axe is shown. No vehicle other than the Porsche ship is shown. No tool, consumable, or inventory item is visible. A game this early in marketing may show only what it wants to promise — the sword is the promise; everything else is still being decided.

When Sony shows a slice with a weapon wheel, a crafting menu, or a fast-travel map, this page will gain those sections. Until then, the accessories list is exactly what the trailer showed: one ship, one blade, one robot, one monitor, one disc player, and one hunter’s wardrobe.
