An anonymous briefing from Dutch studio Guerrilla Games hints at two upcoming entries set in the Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West universe. The first project appears to be a fresh single-player chapter focused on Aloy, likely forming the third installment in the Horizon series. The second project is described as a multiplayer title featuring new characters and a distinctive stylized visual approach, inviting players to explore a post-apocalyptic world alongside friends. The multiplayer effort is reported to be developed by Guerrilla Games internal teams. Details on the game’s genre, release window, and target platforms remain undisclosed. There are rumors the title could run on the Decima engine and be released for PC and PlayStation 5. [Source attribution: VG Times]
Recent industry chatter aligns with Sony’s broader strategy to expand the Horizon universe beyond a single-player experience. The push for a new Aloy-led adventure suggests the studio plans to deepen the narrative arc while continuing to innovate on the series’ expansive world and lore. The prospect of a multiplayer Horizon project could bring cooperative gameplay to the franchise, potentially unlocking a different pace of exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving that complements the established single-player campaigns. The use of a stylized graphics language may help the game stand out visually and ensure a cohesive aesthetic with the existing titles, while the internal development track indicates a measured, in-house approach to content creation.

The unveiling underscores the brand’s ongoing commitment to expanding the Horizon universe while exploring new gameplay modalities. The promotional materials have emphasized high-fidelity character modeling and environmental detail, reinforcing expectations that future Horizon projects will push the boundaries of realism within a stylized framework.
