Horizon MMO Reportedly Canceled After Feasibility Review
The unannounced MMO, developed by NCSoft for PlayStation, PC, and mobile, was reportedly shelved due to financial challenges and internal restructuring.
- The canceled project, codenamed 'Project H' or 'Skyline,' was an MMO set in the Horizon universe, targeting PS5, PC, and mobile platforms.
- Reports from Korean outlet MTN suggest the decision followed a feasibility review and layoffs at NCSoft in late 2023.
- Developers from the project have been reassigned to other roles within NCSoft, avoiding further layoffs within the company.
- This cancellation is separate from Guerrilla Games' ongoing multiplayer Horizon project, which remains in development and is expected to feature co-op gameplay.
- Sony's broader push into live-service games has faced setbacks, with multiple cancellations, including a God of War live-service game and another Bend Studio project.
