Sony and Guerrilla have officially revealed Horizon Hunters Gathering, a new online co-op action title set in the Horizon universe that is separate from the studio's MMO ambitions. The game leans into team-based hunting and action combat while adopting influences from a few contemporary multiplayer and roguelike designs.
- Horizon Hunters Gathering is positioned as a cooperative action experience rather than the previously teased Horizon MMO.
- Gameplay visually and mechanically evokes big-monster hunts, with a focus on multiplayer encounters and equipment-based combat.
- Developers appear to be pulling ideas from a variety of sources, citing inspiration from fast-paced multiplayer structure and roguelike progression systems.
- The reveal suggests a blend of accessible online play and deeper gear/upgrades that reward repeated runs and teamwork.
Expect Guerrilla to expand on modes, progression, and how this title sits alongside their other Horizon projects as more details and footage are released.
