Zero Dawn did 3.4 million as of April I believe, it's no stretch to say the game will pass 5 million without bundles. GG work quick and the Decima engine is getting updated by Kojimas crew, I reckon it will be Horizon 2 on PS4 and a upres during PS5 launch like Zelda.

No point wasting a very good engine

 

[Afrodium]

Why use everyone thinking this will be a PS5 game? Has Sony released two games in any AAA franchise yet this gen? This is a solidly PS4 title.

 

[Mushroomer25]

That's good. That's damn good! Personally I would like to see more witcher 3 style climbing and souls type combat for small enemies. They have the story on lock.

Yeah, I'd be fine if they kept most of the combat for larger enemies unchanged (aside from a few new weapons/effect types) - but really reconsider things like human combat, hunting non-machine prey, and the climbing system. It'd be excellent to see some of the more emergent gameplay of something like Breath of the Wild happen in Horizon (where the environment has more influence over combat encounters).

 

[Linkyn]

Lol, come on. It was well-received. It is a commercial success. It clearly sets up a sequel. How is this even a question?

 

[The Hamburglar]

I just hope the main quest is way longer this time. Far too short.

 

[GlitchyDegree]

Very high. I haven't played it myself but most people seem to like it & it sold very well so it will definitely a sequel.

 

[Servbot24]

There are people here that understands the edit.

Lol, this post is so bizarre. Congrats on the 10% communication success rate? When it would have been super easy to just ask "Will Horizon 2 come out this gen" and communicate to 100% of people.

 

[pixelbox]

Yeah mission flow could use some work. Side one too. It needs to be more integrated in with the main or just be more interesting.

Well, they are working on an expansion to release this year (The Frozen Wilds), so that means full production on Horizon 2 will probably only starts in 2018. Lets predict some solid 3 years on production, so that means it would release Holiday 2020. Guess when PS5 will probably launches?

 

[Sulik2]

About as certain as the sun rising tomorrow.

 

[Akai__]

I'm still failing to understand what GTA 6 has to do with anything, but okay.

As far as Horizon Zero Dawn 2 goes. With 4+ Million copies sold, I believe there is a pretty good chance.

 

[Playsage]

So high that we will get a third game in less than 6 years

 

[Kremzeek]

300%, but for PS5.

 

[Nameless]

100℅. The more intriguing question would've been what are the chances we see a sequel on PS4? If a new console is ready by 2019/2020 it'll be cutting it close.

 

[sense]

1 million percent. I'd bet my Vita on it.

What about a vita 2

 

[Necron]

100%.

It'll probably be a cross-gen title and look amazing on the PS5.

Depending on how much of Horizon's dev time was dedicated to the engine, it's possible a sequel could see a quicker turnaround.

 

[Gen X]

With GTA 6 information now surfacing....

What? Where? I must be under a rock.

 

[meerak]

... what exactly does this have to do with GTA6?

There's no "chance" of HZD2. It's just happening.

 

[PhilipDoesMatter]

86.3% atm

Uncharted.

 

[SmoothRunningGun]

100% I won't get into spoilers but it's happening as it should.

 

[adamsapple]

Let's have the experts calculate:

[Drackhorn]

100%.

And that is what you call 'a good thing'.

 

[webrunner]

Horizon: One Dawn

 

[Conciliator]

they've already got the design docs written out I'm sure

 

[WaterAstro]

It's "Horizon: One Hundred Percent Dawn"

 

[MugiwaraCole]

Yeah, what a silly thread. "Hey guys, what are the chances that this wildly successful, possibly game of the year new IP will get a sequel?"

It's not even that.

GG has stressed for a while now that Horizon is a franchise they're extremely excited about. Franchise, not game. They didn't spend damn near 7 years for a one and done, especially seeing as it's been so successful.

 

[semiconscious]

Think it should be a PS5 launch title.

A sequel is 100% happening, but I doubt we see it this generation.

this ...

 

[Shaanyboi]

0%

In fact, anyone at Guerrilla Games who even mentions the idea is rounded up and sent "on vacation"...

Sony looks at the millions they made and critical acclaim with utter disgust.

 

[Pantz]

100%
but still
0% chance of shampoo or hairbrushes

 

[Theslammer]

lol

 

[Slammin_Hammon]

100%. Cmon it's a no brainer.

Not sure how it's related to gta 6 though?

 

[Floody]

There's absolutely no way we don't get a 2, it's Sony's biggest new I.P since The Last of Us.
My guess is It'll be a PS5 Launch window game.

 

[tesqui]

What if they go back to Killzone lol

I wouldn't mind if they made it open world like Horizon.

 

[TheGameshark]

Whats 100% of 100%

 

[psynergylover]

How is this even a question to ask? Given the success it has achieved it is an absolute certainty!

 

[FingerBang]

It's happening, I mean, it's pretty much hinted at the end of the game (also, it sold a lot for being a completely new IP).

I really hope it won't just be more of the same though.

 

[ronaldthump]

best thing about Horizon 2?

Spoiler

No more unfortunate looking child aloy

 

[Novocaine]

It's their best game. 100%

 

[kyser73]

It'll be a cross-gen launch title for PS5 the way BotW was on WiiU/Switch.

 

[ScaryShark]

It's going to take the place in Sony's lineup that Nathan Drake Uncharted held and I think Aloy is going to become the de facto 'mascot' of the brand going forward with Drake out of the picture.

It would be a perfect PS5 launch game and I'd love for them to do it then.

Story absolutely demands a follow up and the sales have been great. It's going to happen.

 

[SGTLoke]

I would say about a 0% chance since it was just spoiled on a forum talking about the game.

In reality it is happening, awesome game and I'm only 70% through it.

 

[lifetimeofnot]

I bet GG helps out with death stranding as well in some capacity since they are so familiar with the engine already. Nintendo used a similar strategy with having monolith help out on breath if the wild. I'm not sure if botw and xenoblade x use the same engine but some of the world design in botw has monilith written all over it.

 

[NipplesAndToes23]

Probably very high. I wouldn't go with that name though. I really want to play this game.

 

[Print_Dog]

I died.

But yea 100%. And I think PS4. I really think you guys are expecting PS5 too soon. This gen is gonna be longer than most. PS4s are still selling well. And Pro hasn't hit a year yet.

 

[ScientificPizza]

i'd be shocked if there wasn't one, though I'd love to see them do something different again

 

[Falchion]

A hundred million billion percent.

 

[Alastor3]

''What are the chances of Horizon Zero Dawn 2?''

Is that a real thread??

 

[sneas78]

About as certain as the sun rising tomorrow.

Actually it doesn't rise. So 0%
