Looks like Horizon's unannounced MMO has been quietly cancelled (www.eurogamer.net)

Horizon the robot dinosaur game, not Forza Horizon the racing game in case anyone was confused like me.

It's an open world game that takes a lot of inspiration from Monster Hunter. An MMO isn't a huge stretch of the imagination.

Yeah you're absolutely right in terms of concept. I mean if you dig into my example, Suicide Squad could have been a good live-action shooter as well. Marvel Rivals is cooking right now.

I think my initial impression was switching a single-player studio over, but I lost that message in my reply. I also think it could be fun to take down mechs together as a team.

Just pulling it out of my ass, I didn't think I see the appetite and if it's not there then we could be left with a lackluster game.

I'm a big Horizon fan. Although I need to try Monster Hunter, my friends love it.
