Horizon Zero Dawn: New Trailer, New Release Date

We’ve been quiet in recent months, but rest assured that development on Horizon Zero Dawn is still going full steam ahead! In fact, I’m excited to be able to break the silence today with an all-new trailer focusing on our lead character Aloy. We’re exploring the mysteries of her origin, her journey as an outcast and the events that set her on a dangerous quest:

As you can see in the trailer, we’ve decided to push the release date for Horizon Zero Dawn to February 28, 2017. It wasn’t an easy choice to make; we know many of you have been anxious to play the game since we first announced it. However, we also want to ensure that Horizon Zero Dawn lives up to the visuals and gameplay quality that our games are known for. The new date affords us the extra time required to deliver fully on our ambitious vision for Horizon Zero Dawn.

We realize that this decision may not please everyone. At the same time, we’re confident that the advantages of the additional development time afforded by the new date will become clear in the coming months, as we start to share more cool details and videos from Horizon Zero Dawn. We really, really appreciate your patience and continued support, and look forward to bringing you the best game we possibly can in February 2017.

  • I love the new box art!

  • LOL

    Why do you give out release dates at all? Maybe next time just wait until you actually know when the game will be ready. But none of this is shocking at all. It’s come to be expected for PlayStation.

    • Thats Sony’s fault…devs never wanna show their games before its ready to be shown but Sony want to build hype and all that crap to not let people think crap and etc.See The Last Guardian and Driveclub for example.

  • You know nothing, Jon Snow.

  • Take your time! The game is looking great and i want it to be amazing! Day 1 buy no question!

  • Uncharted 4 was worth the wait (though 2 is still the best) so I have no problem waiting for this. Not digging the face so much on the statue, maybe it’s the angle idk but CE pre-order complete. HYPE!

  • February!? GOD DAMMIT!

  • So is that going to require me to buy a new “Neo” console to look like it does in the trailer?

  • I’m a bit confused. The international trailer says the release date is January 3rd. Does the NA actually have to wait nearly 2 months longer for release?

  • surprise another delay thats why they need quit showing games so early wait til u know for sure when its ready i have a feeling this will get delayed again…..

  • That trailer shows too much. I should not have watched it

  • I was eager to play this baby in 2016 but I’m not sad or anything about the delay,still very excited to get ma hands on it but I already got ma hands full of games to play until 2100 or so if I ever live until there lol.For real Guerrilla you guys are bosses at what you do and y’all have ma full trust cuz you never failed to deliver a great game so take your time.I got Horizon pre-ordered and I’m sure time will fly until february 2017.

    BTW great trailer…I was dying for some new footage,glad I didn’t had to wait until E3 but still a new gameplay on E3 wouldn’t hurt hehe.

  • I was thinking 2017 the whole time despite what it was previously announced as.

    I’m okay with delays, things happen. I just wish they wouldn’t hype these games until a few months before release. I stop being excited after while.

  • Please make Limited Edition with steelcase & artbook but without the statue for usa/region 1, I just want the steelcase like europa version. Thanks.

  • Delays are bothersome and a bummer…What’s worse is spending $65.10 on a game that doesn’t work or isn’t what was promised. Guerilla knows what they are doing.

  • Another year, another “major holiday realease for PS4” delayed to february.
    Would be honestly shocked if Horizon was released in time….

  • Good god, when was the last time a Sony-published PS4 game did NOT get delayed? This is getting ridiculous. Is Gran Turismo next?

  • So, the only possible PS4 first party game this year is a ported PS3 game, Last Guardian? Why even give release dates for these games?

  • While this game is beautiful, still not sure if the setting works for me. Whatever, take you time, make it good.

  • This looks like a great game, I hope it really turns out to be that way.

  • Will the Limited Edition becoming to US? I called GameStop just now and they do not have it listed in their system.

  • The delay of Horizon Zero Dawn has been announced, and it is sure to upset a lot of gamers. The developer cites adding additional polish to the game as the reason for the delay however gamers will likely be divided. The video below discusses the delay further and the new release date of the game

  • Pre-ordered the Collectors Edition!

  • It worked for Uncharted it will work for this game too.

  • Spoilers in the 2nd trailer?

  • Devilking-Nikkai

    Awesome game and im sure it’s gonna be one of the best of this gen, but HORRIBLE TRAILER! Who ever made this trailer need to be fired, you guys revealed TOO MUCH and on top of dat, you don’t need a narrator. The whole trailer just feel washed out. Make it short and simple.

  • The game looks amazing Hermen! You and Guerrilla don’t have to worry, your fans know you will deliver an incredible game, whether it’s today, next month, or next year. We’ll be here when it’s ready.

    That said, I do wish the precedent of putting a date on a game before it’s really solid would cool off a bit. I think it’s harmful to the industry.

    In any case, thanks for the update! I’m really looking forward to playing Horizon in 2017.

  • *snif* *snif* Does anybody else smell that? Smells like an incoming massive graphics downgrade.

  • arianawesome2015

    The trailer was awesome and mindblowing az f***
    Was this running on ps4???? :| :|

  • :(, I can’t wait but, I wish it came out earlier but HOPEFULLY, rise of the tomb raider hurry up and comes out.

  • I have been waiting from 2015 then 2016, now 2017. All I want to know is how do you make a date and cannot keep to it?..

  • fanofeverything

    Aww The Game Is out In February? I Hate Delays With A Passion But Hey Games Always Has To Have The Best Story Telling, Gameplay And etc. I’ll Let Guerrilla Games Take Their Time With This One. Could Be Game Of The Year Of 2017 It Might.
    Since It Doesn’t Have Multiplayer, I’ll Let That One Slide For Now. But Please Don’t Be Like The Order 1886 Because That Game Well……You All Know The Details For That. I Can’t Wait Next Year.

  • When a PS game is announced from now on i’ll just assume that it’ll come out two to three years after the original date.

  • Take your time, Guerrilla Games! Most of us are already sold on HZD anyway. I’ll buy it whether it came out today or ten years from now.

  • stilldoingitbig

    The next big thing.

  • Only noticed today while watching the trailer again but its weird not seeing Sony Computer Entertainment there.

  • I for one applaud them. More companies should follow this example instead of hurrying to publish unfinished games only to fall short of what they promised, and have 3 patches in the first two weeks after launch to fix all the bugs they didnt get to.

  • OOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH

  • Let us just hope that with the release delay that we don’t have a day one patch. I really am excited to play as a female protagonist and not just a semi-protagonist like with AC’s Evie. Love the look keep it up Ladies and Gents!

  • ThreeLeggeDawgie

    Looks amazing. Can’t wait. I’m glad it’s pushed till next year. As others have said, lots of other games still to play this year.

  • Change the heroine’s name while you’re at it. Aloy is stupid and too apt to be mispronounced!

  • Take all the time you need. Gives me time to refill the coffers.
    This game will be a day one purchase whenever it’s released.

  • Definitely a day one pick up
