Fans of the Horizon franchise have another game coming. It shouldn’t come to much surprise; the IP has thrived since Guerrilla Games first brought out Horizon Zero Dawn. Since then, there has been a sequel with Horizon Forbidden West alongside a VR spin-off titled called Horizon Call of the Mountain. But don’t get too excited about what’s next for Aloy. The announcement was incredibly brief and provided no real details on what was next.
Instead, Aloy’s mysterious next chapter remains to be seen. As mentioned, this announcement was only briefly discussed during a Guerrilla Games post. Essentially, it was a post to unveil that the studio director, Angie Smets, has gone on to land a new role at PlayStation Studios. Their new title is head of development strategy. As a result, there was a shift in Guerrilla Games management, with the team now consisting of Joel Eschler, Hella Schmidt, and Jan-Bart van Beek. But what you might find most interesting is that the final comments made in the post talk about the future of Horizon.
The statement only says that the team is working on expanding the world of Horizon with Aloy’s next adventure.

But outside of that, we’ll have to practice some patience as we’re likely a long way off before we get any official marketing materials to hype up what Aloy’s next adventure will entail.
We have full confidence in our new leadership as they steer Guerrilla towards a bright future, expanding the world of Horizon with Aloy’s next adventure and our exciting online project. Michiel van der Leeuw (Technical
