Guerrilla Games Sees Its Biggest Success and We Shall Witness More Aloy

We have witnessed the strong beginning of a new year for gaming with Horizon Zero Dawn. The game has sold 2.7 million copies, marking the greatest production by Guerrilla Games on the PS4. Hereafter, we can look forward to the momentum built by launch.

Jumping off their success, the Amsterdam-based developer is already working on Horizon’s expansion. Thus, anyone hankering to see more of the rich post-post-apocalyptic world and Aloy can do so at an undisclosed date. Prior to release, Guerrilla Games was practically serenaded by critical reviews, to be supplemented by user praise post-launch.

“We’re thrilled that Horizon Zero Dawn has been embraced by critics and players alike,” said Guerilla Managing Director Hermen Hulst. “Developing the game was a labor of love, so it’s extremely satisfying to see that it elicits the same passion and enthusiasm from the gaming public that we felt during its development. This is only the beginning of Aloy’s story and our exploration of the world of Horizon Zero Dawn, with the team already hard at work on an expansion to the story.”

Moreover, the company received much praise from industry peers. As it is not easy developing and succeeding at a new IP, many were enthused by such acclaim and the incredible experience. Even big names like CD Projekt RED, Xbox, and BioWare had positive words to share. Some even greater praise came from Chairman of SIE Worldwide Studios Shawn Layden:

“We knew Horizon Zero Dawn was going to be something special, so to see the incredible critical reaction to a brand new game world translate into this level of sales is really gratifying. Guerrilla has created a game that is nothing short of exceptional, and the reaction we have seen from fans – from hours and hours of gameplay streaming to endless photo sharing – shows just how impactful it has been.”

For anyone who hasn’t beaten the game–no spoilers, there may be a hint of what the expansion will entail. Anyone who hasn’t tried Horizon Zero Dawn for themselves, it’s never too late.
