Sony will host its next State of Play this Thursday, and it will focus on Horizon Forbidden West gameplay.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

The Horizon Forbidden West<\/strong> State of Play will kick off at 2pm PT, 5pm ET, 10pm BST, 11PM CEST once a “uniquely crafted countdown” ends.<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n

Watch on YouTube<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n

This countdown  starts at  9am PT, 12pm ET, 5pm BST, 6pm CEST.<\/p>\n

You will be able to watch it on  Twitch<\/a> or YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n

During this 20 minute State of Play, the team at Guerrilla will show around 14 minutes of brand new in-game action featuring, all captured directly on PlayStation 5.<\/p>\n

Horizon Forbidden West was announced in June 2020 during a PS5 showcase<\/a>, and last we heard, it was still on target for release sometime this year<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In it, you will be exploring a mysterious new frontier that stretches from Utah in the US to the pacific ocean on the west coast.<\/p>\n

Guerrilla said when the sequel was announced it wanted to make the world more beautiful and vibrant, and it will feature virtually no loading screens<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The map in the game is a bit bigger than Horizon Zero Dawn and will feature lakes and rivers that you can swim in.<\/p>\n

There will also be dozens of new machines to encounter as you explore.<\/p>\n

You will also come into contact with new tribes, and one has found a way to override the machines in order to use them as beasts of war in combat.<\/p>\n

There is also a red blight affecting the area, choking the plants, animals, and starving the tribes. The weather is also unpredictable, forming supercell storms flooding the prairies and the fields.<\/p>\n
