About the Game

Guerilla Games made a video-game that received worldwide acclaim, that even some reviewers and gamers call it the best open-world experience in video games. Horizon Dawn Zero was released in February 2017, and even it was released three years ago, it still holds up to today's video game releases.

Awards have also been given, and what stands out the most is the Game of the Year Award that they received in 2017.

Andrew Webster, one of The Verge reviewers, calls the game a very familiar and nostalgic experience. Andrew also praised how the game mashes up different aspects of gaming in a perfect manner. He also noted that the game borrowed several gameplay aspects from different games but in a different fashion. But even if the gameplay and concepts are a total mashup, the developers still executed everything well, producing a cohesive and polished game for the PS4.

Steam Release

Although the release date is vague, Hulst remarked that the game would be released within the summer of 2020. The steam store already added Horizon Zero Dawn on their lists, which enables players worldwide to view more information regarding the video game.

Horizon's developer, Guerilla Games, will also confirm more details about the game's release anytime soon.

Sharing the PS4 Experience

Hermen Hulst firmly believes that Horizon Zero Dawn is the perfect game to capture the essence of PS4 and show it to other people. This marketing strategy is also very close to another of Sony's release. The Sony Playstation 5 will drop this year's holiday.

Horizon Zero Dawn was previously only released on the PS4 console, and it stayed that way for years. Hulst believes that non-PS4 gamers would be enticed by the game itself given its unique gameplay and not to mention the story it tells.

Making of History

PS4 exclusives aren't supposed to release in any platform even years after release. Horizon Dawn Zero, however, will make history and break what is supposed to be a sure thing for a very long time.

We have seen so many Playstation exclusives to perform well in terms of sales and even on critic reviews. This doesn't just enable them to gain more profit, but it would also make PS4's popularity rise.

PS4 Exclusives

Some remarkable PS4 exclusives that released over the past few years would be God of War, The Spider-man Game, and the Uncharted series. Horizon Zero Dawn joins this place or position because of how unique a smooth and comfortable gaming experience accompanied its graphics.

Although not on a permanent exclusive spectrum, Death Stranding by Hideo Kojima has also been placed on PS4's arsenal of exclusives. Just like Horizon, Death Stranding will be released on PC anytime soon.

Hermen Hulst quickly dismissed the idea that all games from the PS4 library will come to PC. He noted that this approach wouldn't turn into a trend.
