After a seven year journey,Horizon: Zero Dawnhas proven to be a massive success for Guerrilla Games and Sony. The open world action-adventure game represents a complete switch from what fans were used to seeing from the studio, whose roots come from the first person shooter series,Killzone. Hermen Hulst, the Managing Director and Co-Founder of Guerrilla Games, revealed in a recent interview that the studio may not be done with theKillzoneseries quite yet.
When asked ifKillzonefans should be worried about the company’s focus and success with its new IP, Hulst admitted that it’s a question he gets asked quite a bit through social media channels like Twitter. While developing a brand new and different IP hasn’t always been an easy road for the studio, it’s too soon to make any sort of announcements regarding future plans and whether or not the studio is done withKillzonefor good.
While the news may now be exactly what longtime fans may have wanted to hear, Hulst goes on to confirm that the studio still has a lot of passion for theKillzoneuniverse and franchise as a whole. Hearing that longtime fans continually ask and comment about the series proves to be heartwarming to Hulst, who reaffirms that the studio shares that same passion for the series with them.
For now, Guerrilla remains focused on the world ofHorizon: Zero Dawnand its first expansion pack.
