Guerrilla Games released 14 minutes of Horizon Forbidden West gameplay footage this morning, but unfortunately we didn’t get a release date for the game, or even any kind of confirmation that it was still coming this year.
Guerrilla Games quickly followed up with a tweet to say that development is on track, but they don’t have a release date just yet.
“Thanks for watching our #HorizonForbiddenWest gameplay reveal! We don’t have an exact release date just yet, but development is on track and we will have an update for you very soon – thank you as always for your ongoing support!”

My guess would be that the game is on track for release in 2021, but I’d say that Sony don’t want to commit to anything at this point (which is a little bit odd as they’ve been so conservative with these State of Plays and how soon before launch they are).
You can watch the 4K footage below, where we got to see new enemies, a paraglider, grappling hook, underwater action, and much better graphics in the gameplay which you can see below.
