Even though Sony has announced approximately 900 layoffs among big development studios such as Insomniac, Guerilla, and Naughty Dog, Horizon Online stays on track. The cancelation of The Last of Us Online and other difficulties that Sony has been recently having do not seem to impact this project, which has been in development since 2022.
Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier has confirmed the news in response to a question posted by a user. Even though we do not have data about the game, it’s said it will feature a unique style and look. For release date and time we’ll have to wait a bit longer.

It’s also confirmed that Guerilla Games is leading the development and does not plan to stop creating single-player experiences. Even though the upcoming layoffs might be harsh on Sony’s first-party development studios, they will continue creating beautiful titles.
