Found by kostacurtas on the PlayStation thread. Looks like Visual Arts will finally get its own development studio (they already tried with TLOU Part 1)

PlayStation is building a new internal game development team in partnership with Visual Arts Group – Naughty Dog is involved
- Thread starter nolifebr
- Start date
Will be interesting to see how they turn out, but it'll likely be a few years yet before we hear anything (Building a new team, culture, etc takes time, let alone developing a game). Hopefully it works out better than the Manchester Studio that didn't release anything before they were shut down.
The news of the new internal game development team seems to be a bit old (at least 10 months or so). Here's a tweet from January 22 mentioning a job listing with the same wording: https://twitter.com/zuby_tech/status/1485244590353522692
"Sony PlayStation has a new game development team in partnership with PlayStation Studios Visual Arts."

I hope it's a new thing but I would also not be surprised if they start by remaking U1-3.
Is this the one they start to see whispers and break the expected timeline where Aeri…. Sorry, Joel doesn't die?
HBO TLOU Part 1 Remake
Didn't VA want to remake Uncharted 1, according to those old rumours awhile back?
The wording of this job listing in particular has been doing the rounds since 2018. It's basically deja vu every year it crops up with the a few tweaks to the sentence.
Here's an article from 2018 that has almost the same paragraph as the job listing mentioned in this thread:

Main difference this time is they actually mention Naughty Dog by name.
Yes according to Jason's reporting they pitched both ideas and went with TLOU.
I would love to see ND just get expanded so they can release more varied content every console generation. Hard to put out multiple big AAA experiences these days (without asset recycling) within a 5-year span, and if there's a team with experience that would be incredible with multi-releases (not remakes), it would be ND.
^^studios not already doing the multi-team thing I mean.

Please no more remakes. I'm so fucking tired of old games with graphical facelifts. New stories, please.
I have never heard of them before, what have they done?
Also, any future uncharted games should star Chloe and Nadine

No more Nadine unless they recast her with an actual Black actress.
They should do a prequel starring Sully in the 70s, honestly.
I agree, I think in general relatively quick remasters for devs who don't have much to do until the next release and the odd remake is fine. But you can't get all of your big franchises on the PS5 and eventually the PS6 will come so what are they going to do remaster them again?
Playstation visual art is a support studio that do animation, motion capture , art, ... on all sony 1st party games and are very involve with ND games
And sometimes they also do motion capture for some 3rd party games
They could at least update the UC Collection to 4k/120fps.
