Horizon Steel Frontiers, the MMORPG developed by South Korean studio NCSoft in collaboration with Guerrilla and Sony, is reportedly nearing the end of its development. The information was shared by Park Byung-moo, co-CEO of NCSoft, during an investor conference.
The game is set in the Horizon universe, within the Deadlands, a territory populated by dangerous machines. It will feature customizable combat, machine hunting, and large-scale battles typical of MMORPGs.
Originally planned for mobile and PC (via NCSoft’s PURPLE platform), the title is currently expected in 2027. NCSoft is currently in discussions with Sony to determine the best release window and promises an announcement soon. A PS5 release, however, has not been confirmed, despite requests from the PlayStation community.
Meanwhile, the other project in the Horizon franchise, called Horizon Hunters Gathering, is in a precarious position, to the point that it was completely overhauled a few months ago.
