Guerrrilla Games, the developer of Horizon: The Desperate West (Horizon 2: Forbidden Lands), talked about the third sequel to Horizon in an interview with foreign media. In the finale of Horizon: Desperate In the West, although the threat of the Zenith of Zhiyuan is cleared, it is learned through Tilda that a mysterious signal named Nemesis is following the footsteps of the Zhiyuan Zenith man to Earth. An even greater threat is coming, the reborn Earth will soon be destroyed, and the story of the second part ends here.
Creative Director Mathijs de Jonge explains that the suspenseful ending of Desperate West lets players know we're preparing for the next game, as was the ending of the previous game Dawn of Zero. Of course, de Jonge didn't reveal the details of Horizon 3, but he emphasized that the series tells important secrets, and each game explores the history of the old world and the mysteries of the new world. He also believes that a large number of backstories can be used to develop new storylines and create new puzzles on top of existing ones. ”
Horizon: Dawn of Zero landed on PS4 on February 28, 2017, and Horizon: Desperate West on February 18, 2022, making it simple to assume that Horizon 3 may be released around 2027.
