Sony Reboots 'Horizon Hunters Gathering' After Negative Feedback
Sony's live-service game, Horizon Hunters Gathering, announced earlier this year, is undergoing a reboot following negative feedback from test players. According to Bloomberg, developer Guerrilla Games has been working on the changes since June and plans to remove the live service elements of the game. This move reflects ongoing struggles with Sony’s recent focus on live-service models. The shift comes as PlayStation increasingly returns its attention to premium single-player games, a format it is traditionally known for. However, Bloomberg notes that the next full single-player Horizon title remains years from completion. The decision highlights broader challenges in adapting long-standing game franchises to evolving player expectations and market trends.
