Horizon Forbidden West developer Guerrilla Games has announced that the next PlayStation State of Play will be all about its upcoming video game, set to release later this year for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. The new State of Play is specifically set to take place at 5PM ET/2PM PT on Thursday, May 27th, and will include a lengthy countdown beginning at 12PM ET/9AM PT. Additionally, it has been announced that the State of Play will include 20 minutes of gameplay, 14 of which will be completely new.
Beyond the fact that the State of Play itself will include gameplay from Horizon Forbidden West featuring Aloy, the franchise's protagonist, captured on the PlayStation 5, it is unclear exactly what the event might reveal. There is still no official release date beyond "2021" for the upcoming title, and it seems like the right sort of time and place to announce such a thing. And the "uniquely crafted countdown" that begins much earlier in the day is entirely a mystery at this point.
We are so excited to show you more of Horizon Forbidden West! This Thursday, May 27, join us on a very special journey into new and uncharted lands.

As noted above, the Horizon Forbidden West State of Play is set to take place at 5PM ET/2PM PT on Thursday, May 27th, and will include a lengthy countdown beginning at 12PM ET/9AM PT.
