The success of the primary sport led to each a direct sequel with Horizon Forbidden West (in addition to the Burning Shores enlargement), in addition to a remaster of HZD, and family-friendly retelling LEGO Horizon Adventures.
In our evaluate of Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, GAMINGbible’s Kate mentioned: “You may not have thought it possible, but this version of Aloy’s world is even more beautiful, with Nixxes’ subtle attention to detail resulting in a space that feels even more immersive and brimming with life. When you can upgrade for just £10, there’s really no reason why you shouldn’t.”
During early 2024, rumours had been making the rounds {that a} Horizon MMO spin-off was in the works (which was later confirmed) however slightly than being dealt with by collection developer Guerrilla Games, this new title would as an alternative be developed by NCSoft.
NCSoft is a South Korean-based studio and whereas it hasn’t created a large AAA title earlier than the Horizon spin-off, it was accountable for a number of MMORPGs together with the Lineage and Blade & Souls collection.
Being aware of MMORPGs is why NCSoft was chosen to develop the Horizon spin-off with it additionally being an MMORPG, so in that respect, it appeared like a pure match.
Unfortunately, should you had been excited concerning the prospect of a Horizon MMORPG, then we’ve bought unhealthy information as a result of new stories are making the rounds that the mission has unceremoniously been cancelled.
The Horizon MMORPG apparently had two codenames, Project H and Project Skyline, and was meant to launch on PC, PlayStation and cellular units. This follows current stories {that a} God of War multiplayer spin-off has additionally been cancelled.
News of this story was shared by business insider and dependable leaker Synth Potato on Twitter via Push Square. “The Horizon MMO that was being developed by NCSoft has reportedly just been cancelled by PlayStation,” they tweeted.
“This marks the ninth live service game that Sony has cancelled that was in development. The other Horizon multiplayer project by Guerrilla remains in development, for now.”
I suppose if there’s some excellent news to take from that tweet it’s that there’s one other multiplayer Horizon sport within the works by Guerrilla, although it would not shock me if that had been cancelled given different current information.
At least we nonetheless have each Horizon single-player video games on PC and PlayStation to take pleasure in.
