Forbidden alpha footage
Footage purporting to be fromHorizon Forbidden West’s multiplayer alpha has appeared online. The leak surfaced onRedditover the weekend, claiming to be from a “very old alpha” build from summer 2020. It’s an interesting watch, as while the world and robo dinos look like classic Horizon, the characters jumping around fighting them look a lot more stylised than their hyper-detailed mainline counterparts.Dead Space PC Review - An Excellent Remake Of A Horror ClassicWatch on YouTubeThe leaked footage mainly features a lot of characters running around in low-poly environments and some brief looks at combat against its familiar mechanical enemies. What was most interesting were the “join-PS4” and a “join-PC” options, potentially hinting at cross-platform play and a simultaneous PC release.There are still a number of question marks surrounding this footage, though. When it was originally posted, it was labelled as “Horizon Forbidden West leaked alpha’s multiplayer” - Forbidden West being the currently PlayStation-only sequel toHorizon Zero Dawn. The latter received a PC port a couple of years ago, but we’re still waiting for Sony to bring over the former, calling into question those “join-PC” settings.However, it’s also possible that this leaked footage has something to do withGuerrilla’s already confirmed Online Project, which is supposed to have “a new cast of characters and a unique stylised look”, according to their announcementtweetfrom last December. Guerrilla are still hiring for that particular project, though, so until they have more to say about it, your guess is as good as ours. Still, Monster Hunter-style co-op with some sweet Thunderjaws sounds like a ride I’d be up for.Horizon seems to be expanding rapidly. The aforementioned Online Project is currently being developed internally at Guerrilla alongside another single-player Horizon game, but there are also other developers working on more External Projects as well. Chief among them is the rumouredHorizon MMORPG, coming fromGuild Warspublisher NCsoft. Customisable robot mounts, anyone?If you’d rather hunt robot dinosaurs alone, Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition is available on PC now viaSteam, theEpic Games Store,andGOGfor £40/€50/$50.
