Horizon II: Forbidden West announced for PS5

Horizon II is real, and it is coming to PlayStation 5. It’s called Horizon II: Forbidden West. Sony revealed the sequel during its PS5 event today. Guerrilla Games returns as the developer.

The original Horizon: Zero Dawn came out for PlayStation 4 in 2017. It is an open-world game set in a world regrown and filled with giant, dinosaur-like robots many years after an apocalyptic event. The game was a big hit, selling over 10 million copies. A port for PC is coming out later this year. It resembled other open-world games, such as the Assassin’s Creed franchise and the newer Tomb Raider titles, but Horizon managed to stand out with its interesting world and characters, including leading heroine Aloy. She’s back in the sequel.
