A large number of job listings were posted to the Guerrilla Games website earlier today, which has seemingly confirmed that the team is working on a Horizon multiplayer project.
As first spotted by Twitter user @JorRaptor, several job listings indicate a Horizon multiplayer project is in the works. One listing, under the title “Senior Character Combat Designer (Online Project),” says the role will include “working closely with Lead Combat Designer to design unique abilities that are exciting to execute, offer tactical choices, and create cooperative opportunities, for multiple player characters”.
In addition, a “Senior Machine Combat Designer (Online Project),” role also states role will include “Design, change and update behaviors of existing iconic machines of the Horizon franchise as well as design to introduce new machines”.
Soon after the job listings were found and posted online, Guerrilla Games posted to their Twitter account that the team was working “to expand the world of Horizon”.
The post says that “a new internal team is developing a separate Online Project set in the Horizon’s universe”.
The new project will feature “a new cast of characters and a unique stylized look, friends will be able to explore the majestic wilds of Horizon together.”

At first I wasn’t for the simple reason I’m not a multiplayer guy. Always preferred the one player rpg stuff. But after playing it for a few hours and looking at it multiplayer style. It could be really cool. I’m excited to see just what is going to be like.
