Originally slated for a 2016 release, Horizon Zero Dawn, Guerrilla Games’ upcoming PS4 exclusive, has a new release date: February 28, 2017. Guerrilla Games stated on the PlayStation Blog that the cause of the delay was so the game could “live up to the visuals and gameplay quality that our games are known for.”
While the delay is unfortunate, they’ve softened the blow with a new trailer, highlighting the game’s story and protagonist Aloy’s journey. The trailer shows an inquisitive little girl in Aloy, one who wants to know her own origin, her mother, and her status as an outcast. Whatever the answers to these questions are, we’re explore them next February.
Check out the Trailer:
“As you can see in the trailer, we’ve decided to push the release date for Horizon Zero Dawn to February 28, 2017. It wasn’t an easy choice to make; we know many of you have been anxious to play the game since we first announced it. However, we also want to ensure that Horizon Zero Dawn lives up to the visuals and gameplay quality that our games are known for. The new date affords us the extra time required to deliver fully on our ambitious vision for Horizon Zero Dawn.
We realize that this decision may not please everyone. At the same time, we’re confident that the advantages of the additional development time afforded by the new date will become clear in the coming months, as we start to share more cool details and videos from Horizon Zero Dawn. We really, really appreciate your patience and continued support, and look forward to bringing you the best game we possibly can in February 2017.”
