Is this really necessary?
Horizon Zero Dawn may have a PS5 remake in the works, but it would not be developed by Guerrilla, according to an insider.
Well-known journalist and insider Colin Moriarty , host of the Sacred Symbols podcast, in the new episode of the program revealed one small but interesting detail regarding the Horizon: Zero Dawn remake for PlayStation 5, rumors about which first appeared in early October.
Moriarty cannot confirm the details of the project with complete certainty, but claims that the development of the updated game is being carried out without the direct involvement of Guerrilla Games.
According to him, he heard that some other team is working on a remake of Horizon: Zero Dawn, but did not disclose who exactly, so as not to substitute his source.
At the same time, Guerrilla itself is currently also immersed in work on the franchise.
Remaster, going by the original leaked documentI just can't believe this rumor at all, it's so absurd. A 2017 PS4 game that no one is asking to replay... we just played the sequel 10 month ago, and HZD just came out on PC.
What's probably happening is that some studio is helping Guerrilla with the Horizon online game using assets from the first game, and somehow this got to "insider's" ears as being a full remake.
If by any chance the remake rumor is true, I truly hope it sells really badly. I just can't support this level of greediness.
100% This.Doesnt matter who is making it. The fact that its in development just five years after the first game is so ridiculously stupid, it shouldnt even be happening.
Will they sell the game for the same price a new player can pay on HZD for ps4 right now? A game that by the way runs perfectly well on ps5. There is absolutely no excuse to remake or even remaster this game, they are just 'renewing' it's 70 USD price point. If you can't see this as greed, I think you are being moronic and shortsighted.Remaster, going by the original leaked document
The best guess to why they're doing it is to prepare for a whole new wave of people who will want to play the first game after the Horizon Netflix series drops.
Also, lol, I can't take anyone who's calling this "greed" seriously. Is Sony making the original release of Horizon Zero Dawn disappear from the console/PC stores? Are they forcefully removing copies from peoples machines and breaking their discs? Are they holding people at gunpoint to force them to buy this remaster (assuming there's even any extra cost)? Or are they going to put out an update to a popular game with a tiny fraction of their output capacity that harms no one but benefits fans and newcomers to the franchise?
I hate to be harsh, but calling this "greed" is moronic and shortsighted.
Hermen is out of touch when it comes to games. Crashing all great stuffs that yosp build with his stupidest ideas. I though it couldn't get worse than tlou remake but oh boy how i was wrong.Sony love wasting money.

It's not unreasonable to speculate on a new price, since they've done this before... for that reason is also not unreasonable to say it's greed as well.And you're pulling a random figure out of your arse. Again, the leaked document that mentioned this project called it a remaster, not a remake (ala TLOU Part 1). We can only speculate how much (if at all) this will cost as we have absolutely zero actual info on it. Wasting energy to play the "what if" game by assigning a random price to it is indeed moronic and shortsighted.
This has always been the problem with forums like this. People don't know how to properly assimilate shards of data and half truths that we call rumors and leaks. Folks don't know how to take this data in stride and for what it is. Then speculation and ass-pulled nonsense starts getting flung about and we wind up with a bunch of people whining and crying over crap that they mostly made up.

There is nothing wrong with speculating on a internet forum. I am here to voice my opinion as a consumer, and I am saying that IF this is just an excuse to charge 70 USD for a 2017 game, I see it as greed. I can also say that: IF they charge the same price we can pay right now for HZD, I will be very happy for those who haven't played it yet. Does that sound more acceptable to you?
I get the feeling you are too personally invested in this. Seems like you took my personal opinion (that I don't believe this is true, and if it is I can't support it) as a personal attack, since you absolutely had to add that I am a moron, shortsighted, AND I can't assimilate what I read on the internet. Get over yourself and stop thinking everyone is an idiot.
Anyway I'm done derailing this.

I just don't get it. The PS5 has almost complete backward compatibility with PS4 games
Unless Guerilla goes their way to add another significant expansion to Horizon Zero Dawn, this remaster can't cost more than $30 since the complete edition is already $20. It's probably just a way for Sony to re-release the game for PS5 and throw it around the same time as the TV series to generate more hyyyyype.
I feel like the multiplayer thing is going to be a full price standalone game. It would be quite bizarre if they decide to include it in a remaster of the first Horizon.Maybe, maybe not.
What if they throw in that MP game as some combo?
So...it could be full price if they feel that MP thing is worth it on top of a remaster or something. Though Ghost Of Tsushima didn't have a paid MP thing, its directors cup with the MP and that dlc island thing I recall was full price.
So maybe they see it as Horizon Zero Dawn complete Directors Cut MP edition or something. Hard to say. They might also have some path way like Ghost did to just upgrade to those features, modes etc. If they don't have a pathway to upgrade, ima skip it lol I like HZD, but I don't see me running thru it in a long time to care, I do want to try out that MP mode though.
If Bluepoint are working on this instead of Demon’s Souls 2 I’ll create another account suicide.
Imagine Bluepoint stoped working on his title to remake h1Doesnt matter who is making it. The fact that its in development just five years after the first game is so ridiculously stupid, it shouldnt even be happening.
Probably Nixxes doing this.
Yeah and they were bought for ports, helping with development, and remastering stuff.Didn't they come along and fix the HZD PC port before getting acquired?
Wouldn't be surprised, they'd know the game intimately and have it on hand.
Director’s Cut, Developer’s Cut, Marketing’s Cut, Sound-Dedigner’s Cut, Maximum ULTIMATE Version.So we went from remaster to remake.. what now
