Earlier this year, Sony announced it was canceling multiple PlayStation Studios games amid lay offs that affect 900 employees worldwide. One game that made the culling was the unannounced Horizon multiplayer game. It seems this project will be Guerrilla‘s next release, despite Sony’s failures within the live service landscape.

It’s definitely a mixed bag when it comes to the Horizon multiplayer game update. On one hand, it’s great to see that Guerrilla is pushing forward with this project, especially after all the cancellations and layoffs at Sony. But on the other hand, it’s hard not to feel a bit anxious given how Concord flopped. Live service games have been struggling lately, and it makes you wonder if they’re putting too much faith in a genre that’s been hit or miss.
I really hope they nail the multiplayer experience, but it’s tough to shake off the feeling that they might be taking a big risk here. The Horizon universe has so much potential for multiplayer, but if they don’t get it right, it could end up being another disappointment. Fingers crossed they’ve learned from recent failures and can deliver something special!
