The long-rumored MMORPG set in PlayStation's Horizon universe is real, it's called Horizon Steel Frontiers, and NCSOFT is developing it for PC and mobile devices. That’s right – no PlayStation 5 version is planned for one of PlayStation’s biggest franchises, which was sired by Guerilla Games, who is collaborating on the development of Horizon Steel Frontiers, of course.
In Horizon Steel Frontiers, players venture into the Deadlands to hunt the robot machines the series is known for. NCSOFT is leaning more into Monster Hunter-style gameplay systems for Steel Frontiers while adding MMORPG elements, which I think makes a lot of sense for Horizon.
I’m not going to lie, I am salty that this is not coming to PS5 – likely to leave runway for the other rumored Horizon online title from Guerrilla Games – but it does look incredible. No release date has been announced for Horizon Steel Frontiers, but you can check out the extensive reveal trailer below.
