Horizon Zero Dawn Composer Tweets About PS5 Event, Fans Lose Their Minds

Terrific news though expected it to be there in some way. Looking forward to seeing where they take the story in the next one!

@Arugula did you play the frozen wilds dlc? Best thing guerilla have ever done imo. Absolutely sublime

Not really that big on the game to be honest, it’s alright but I genuinely didn’t see anything so standout or original that would warrant having loads of fans. One thing I want to see from Sony next-gen is more originality, there’s only so many third-person action adventure games I can handle.

To be honest I'll be shocked if Horizon 2 isn't at the reveal event. Of all of Sony's currently expected big hitting sequels, I always thought it was the most likely to make an appearance.

"Horizon Zero Dawn 2 - or whatever it ends up being called"

My money's on Horizon Zero Mid-morning

I loved HZD and I'm still shocked I haven't finished; but it may mean something

@Gremio108 You're way off. I know for a fact its called Horizon Zero Sharon and Aloy is voiced by Pauline Quirke

I'm not convinced HZD2 will be a launch game but it is hard to tell, if it is it'll be 2021 game.

@Gremio108 Horizon: Zero Brunch

@Mergatro1d That took me a minute. There are definitely not enough Birds of a Feather crossovers in gaming these days

@Alfieburns Can't deny it's got a ring to it

If this and/or GT7 end up being launch games, Sony will have to double their initial production run...still 6 hours 40 mins or so to go...sigh...

Haha, almost comes across as sarcastic.... Can't tell if that was intentional, or was trying to come across as genuine and hope that people take it literally verbatim, I suppose it depends on what kind of person he is.

I'm excited to see a new Horizon game, really enjoyed the original. I do wonder if they'll add some co-op, and if the second player character will be voiced by Max from Life Is Strange.
Either way, bring it on!

@Arugula
Poor story?
😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

@Chryssy75. I know right theres always a hater on this site.😒☺🤔.word up son

Seems to be a lot of "losing their minds" going on lately.

I really didn’t like HZD. For the same reason I didn’t like Witcher. I found the NPC’s incredibly annoying. I wanted to love it as so many seem to do but I just couldn’t stick with it.

@Grimwood Oh, I loved the original and am looking forward to a sequel - though it'll take more than a tweet to get me hyped. I was referring more to the world in general.

@Arugula that's ok, you re entitled to your opinion, but if there s something I rarely heard about HZD before is the quality of its story.

I enjoyed Horizon - but it wasn't a standout title for me.

Graphically, it was very impressive. Story-wise it was decent. Gameplay-wise wasn't quite as engaging. It got to a point where I just by-passed as much combat as I could just to reach the waypoints I needed to finish the story.

Coming off of playing Breath of the Wild and all it's traversal freedom and explorative design, Horizon felt like a step back - despite being more graphically superior and more cinematic in it's story-telling.

@Arugula I loved story and the lore?

@GamingFan4Lyf Weird i found the gameplay awsome the controls were sublime never had so much fun hunting.

Horizon: Zero Hour

Diet Horizon Dawn.

I didn't finish HZD. Nice graphics, but that was all. I was really excited from the beginning (even if I dislike to play female characters and nors half prehistoric environment) but it turn some way I didn't feel confortable to play it (still pushing Focus to scan surroundings, climbing only by yellow objects, constant crafting). Even if I liked that post-apocalyptic mistery in caves, I was forcing myself to play it and after about 20 hours I just gave up. For me this game is somehow unenjoying. Therefore I'm not so interested in HZD2.

@Gremio108 haha I'm worried that Birds of a Feather was the first place my brain went

Horizon Shadow Dawn
Horizon New Dawn
Horizon Eclipsed Dawn
Horizon Down Dawn
Horizon Bright Dawn
Horizon Frozen Dawn
Horizon Dawn-ish Dawn
Horizon Red Dawn
Horizon Glorious Dawn
Horizon Wild Dawn
Super Horizon Odyssey

@nessisonett Nothing standout or original?

HZD literally had the best console grfx to date, combat was extremely well implemented, and the setting was enormously original. Also, how many games feature a bow n arrow as the primary weapon? How about the grapple gun to tie down dinosaurs?

HZD was a critical and commercial darling, it sold 15 million copies and scored about a 90 Meta. Pretty decent for a new IP.

@djlard Dislike to play female characters? Have we suddenly been transported to the 80s? Piss off elsewhere with that *****, it’s literally 2020.

@Shogunrok How Do We Know Horizon 2 Is What They Would Show? It Could Be a New Killzone Or Even That Rumored Mutilplayer Game Guerrilla Games Was Working On.

@djlard You didn't like playing as a female, scanning surroundings, and climbing yet your avatar is Assassin's Creed....

AC has 2 games where you can be a female, eagle vision is used plenty, and climbing is often a chore. AND you quit HZD after 20 hours because you were bored yet you probably spent 200 hours grinding meaningless quests and side activities in AC Odyssey, right?

HZD is a great game, the Sony hate is appalling. Anything they do gets criticized, even rumors. HZD 2, Demon's Souls Remake, GT7, new 3rd party exclusives like Godfall. What exactly do you want? You want it to be more like the Xbox SX show? AC Valhalla and a bunch of last gen looking multiplats?

Im honestly shocked how many people here didn't enjoy HZD or thought it was mediocre. It's absolutely one of the very best games of this gen. Amazing, touching story, wholly unique setting, best PS4 graphics to date, awesome lore, great characters... what's there not to love? Im honestly not a huge Playstation fan, but HZD2 being there in today's event will really make me wanna get a PS5!

Got the platinum for the first one, spent more than a 100 hours playing it. Just loved jumping in and taking out the machines was incredibly satisfying. can't wait to see where the sequel goes. The way it ended and also with the after credits scene has me excited to continue on Aloy's journey, both as a character and the world she inhabits!

Hopefully we get to play as an Oseram in the sequel just so I can call everybody 'little bird'.

We need killzone back or a first person shooter exclusive for ps5 more than anything.

I'd expected a HZD 2 at some point,much like a God of War 2, but it'd be a surprise to be a launch title! Still working my way through the first one...I enjoy it for what it is-obviously new tech with the Dualshock 5 would be right up its alley not to mention open world stuff. Would defs be a must buy if I could afford the ps5 itself at some point!
TLOU 2 &/or G.O.T will be doing enough wallet pinching not to mention the indies that never seem to get a psn sale on my wishlist,sigh!

HZD didn't grip me at the start...only when I got to the Proving mission did it really open up for me...and around that point I ignored the story and just messed around taking down robodinos and upgrading my gear. Then it clicked big time for me - played 72 hours and platinumed it.

Great graphics, great story to explain the world, Aloy became a memorable character, awesome combat for an open world game (compare to GTAV or the Witcher for e.g. HZD has them beat on combat).

Favourite things: First Thunderjaw battle...and the tearblast arrows, for me with the best sound effect in gaming...BAWEEEEB!

Yeah I would lose my mind if this is a launch game or even a year 1 game for the PS5!

@Arugula I am a Killzone connoisseur but I get the love for Horizon. They did a fantastic job on it. I'm excited for a sequel, still want a new Killzone, preferably Mercenary style.

@iamtylerdurden1 The thuth is that I run thru all AC games (right now some 19 hours in AC Odyssey) and that eagle scaning is pretty annoying. I just wanted to say, that HZD was for some strange reason a big pain in the *** for me, even if I was pretty excited at first. I didn't say it's a bad game. It just didn't catch my fire... @nessisonett got no words for your meaningless rudeness. Just, learn to respect others rights. If someone dislikes somethig for whatever reason, it's his business, not yours.

@iamtylerdurden1 true... but don't worry, they are definitely the minority, so you can ignore them. They are just loud and more vocal (like usual). Everything is a negative and/or a disappointment to them to the point of being laughable.

I can envisage a Q1/Q2 2021 launch for this if it is indeed announced tonight

I'm hoping for Horizon Second Breakfast

I absolutely loved the first game so I only hope the sequel can match and even surpass the level of the original.

@djlard There’s absolutely no way you can defend ‘not liking playing as female characters’. That’s such a repugnant, inexcusable thing to say on a gaming website like what possible reason could you give that would explain such a terrible attitude?

@Nah900 Well that person came to a comment section about the same game to insult it and also make some inane comment about their own personal biases against female characters. Doesn’t matter if I wasn’t big on HZD, it’s not like I blamed what was between Aloy’s legs.

@invictus4000 I think alot of people didn't enjoy it because they didn't invest enough in the combat. Turn the skill level up and becomes quite tactical with large battles requiring forethought to come out on top of.

I'm currently watching my son play it (he's 8). He's level 28 and 36 hours in. He absolutely loves it.

Roll on 9pm 🏹🦖🥳

@nessisonett

Who said that? Unbelievable

Ooooommmmmmggggggg!!!!!!! GIVE IT TO ME, I NEED IT G8VE 8T TO ME HRDJKTDKIYEAXKK

@djlard I can’t believe you’re a real person. Genuinely, there’s no point attempting to pick apart every awful, outdated thing you’re saying because I’d be here all day.

@Nah900 Im sure there are enough games where you can play as a male. 😉

@nessisonett Totally agree but he has gone back too the stoneage.

@NomNom I did not like the last Killzone on PS4 i was somewhat dissapointed i expected so much more. I started with the PS4 a year after release. With all the Killzone games i was blown away except the first one.

@nessisonett How can you live in this doomed world, where people have different opinions? ☺️

@Flaming_Kaiser Killzone 2 is still the best. If you have a Vita I cannot recommend Mercenary enough. It feels so fantastic.

@NomNom For me its KZ3 i loved the mode Operations so much, the classes (rage when i was a cloaked sniper😆), Brutal melee, the maps i just loved it all so much i platinumed the game and got to max level on MP it just all clicked for me. somehow. The Last Killzone was so dissapointing it just didnt wow me like 2 and 3.

@NomNom I need to find my Vita and a crappy memory card. 😆 👌

@Arugula I think the worst thing they ever did was never make a game where we played the entire campaign as Helghast. They did a good job of humanizing them in background story, but never completed it in my opinion. Hopefully some day...
