Fans expecting Horizon 3 to arrive by 2027 are panicking over a new rumor from an insider. Guerrilla Games may be devoting most of its resources to the newly announced Horizon Hunters Gathering. The live service PS5 game could delay the release date of the third mainline single-player adventure.
I’m honestly surprised at all the hate this game is getting. I don’t know if what I’ve been seeing on social networks is a very vocal minority, or if I’m in the minority.
I liked HZD story and universe, didn’t care much for the gameplay (felt too much like Ubisoft). I tried HFW but didn’t play more than a few hours, it felt like a forced sequel, the story arc was complete at the end of HZD, and the gameplay was as boring as the first one. To this day, I still don’t get how anyone could be excited about a third game, which would just be more of the same.
I’d be way more excited by a totally new IP from Guerilla, and maybe a different type of game. Or a return to killzone.
When I heard of a monster hunting game set in the horizon universe, I was intrigued. After seeing the reveal, I have two major gripes: I don’t like the characters animation, and I don’t like the fact that I won’t be able to create my own character. I’m also not sure about the time limited aspect of it, but we’ll see. Still willing to give the game a chance, and see how they will act on the feedback.
