Forums - Gaming Discussion - Horizon PS4 details: Varied Locations, “Open World Comparable to The Witcher”

Guerrilla Games’ new IP codenamed Horizon concepts were leaked yesterday on a Chinese site. The game will have robotic dinos and a redheaded female protagonist.

New details on the IP have been revealed by well known industry insider Shinobi. He says that the game will be absolutely gorgeous and will have varied locations.

He says that there will also be a dedicated single player component and co-op.

“There’s a dedicated single player. Gorgeous landscapes, snowy tundras, jungles, vast savannahs, open world comparable to the Witcher. Cool weapons, villages and towns to encounter, “tribal” societies,” he revealed.

He also said that the game may get an E3 reveal but this leak may change Sony’s plans.

“The plan is an E3 reveal. I’m not sure if this leak will force their hand sooner or not though,” he added.

The game sounds really promising and is said to be an action RPG. Whether Guerrilla Games can pull it off or not remains to be seen. Take this as a rumour for now but Shinobi is usually very trustworthy.

More details:

    "Let’s see based on what I can remember. The game is set in a post apocalyptic future where robots have evolved into animals/dinosaurs and humans have devolved into pre-civilization tribes of Hunters/Gatherers who are surviving off the land making weapons and armor out of robot parts.

    You play as one of your tribe’s hunters who’s this girl that is fascinated with exploring the ruins of our old civilization.

    They showed us some early concept gameplay, it seemed like one of the more unique aspect of the gameplay was that your character uses rope arrows to tangle up those giant dinobots like AT-ATs in Empire Strikes Back

    They make it seem like there would be either class based co-op or your character would have some sort of NPCs fighting along side her. It seems like an open world third person action RPG and they claim the map will be extra huge."

Can't wait to see some gameplay. If it's anything like the Witcher then I'll be interested for sure.



This is getting more and more interesting. There is a talent in GG, but it is wasted on Killzone imo ( even though I liked Shadow Fall )

It is nice to see them creating something completely new.



I'm getting hyped



don't mean to be negative but killzone shadow fall was very average and I've personally never thought GG as a 'good developer'... game will probably look visually stunning for a ps4 game but let down in the gameplay department.

I kinda share you pessimism, but I do think the RPG element may mask what Gorrilla lack in inventive, compelling gameplay.

Great visuals, open world, interesting setting, fun loot = Thats already a great RPG in my eyes. Most RPGs tend to have relatively mediocre mechanics in my opinion anyway. Elderscrolls Oblivion controlled like shit but I spend my life on that game because of the contents of the world. 



I wonder how long it's going to take for the overhyped-police to swarm this game?

The Witcher 1 and 2 aren't really open world though, not if you define it the way most do anyway. Gothic and TES are open world.
