Recent reports claimed that the Horizon MMORPG rumoured to be in development at NCSoft had been cancelled. Amidst a fresh flurry of live service cancellations at PlayStation, that didn’t come as a huge surprise to many- but it now seems that the project may have survived the axe after all.
NCSoft has indeed cancelled the in-development title known internally as Project H, though contrary to speculation, it seems that game isn’t the Horizon MMO being made in collaboration with PlayStation and Guerrilla. That’s as per reporter Seo Jeong-geun, who wrote the original report for Korean outlet MTN from which this story emerged. Taking to Korean gaming forum Ruliweb, Jeong-geun that the Project H in question “has nothing to do with Horizon“.
Interestingly, job listings published by NCSoft indicate that the Horizon MMO is in development under the codename Project Skyline (via ResetEra). Though it was initially being worked on as Project H, it seems that codename was being held by an entirely different project that has now have been cancelled. That would mean NCSoft is still collaborating with Guerrilla and PlayStation on the Horizon title. The company signed a strategic partnership with Sony back in November of 2023.
Guerrilla is currently also working on a separate co-op Horizon project that is rumoured to be the studio’s next big release. Read more on that through here.
