Guerrilla today announced a new chapter in the Horizon universe: Horizon Hunters Gathering, in development for both PlayStation 5 and PC, with cross-play and cross-progression support.
Horizon Hunters Gathering is a cooperative action game that lets three players team up as heroic Hunters to protect a world under threat from deadly machines. Combat is tactical, reactive, and deeply skill-based, building on the tactical precision of the Horizon games while embracing the dynamics of team play.
The foundation of Horizon Hunters Gathering centres on challenging, replayable hunts. So far, two game modes have been revealed:
Machine Incursion, a high-intensity mission in which waves of machines pour out from underground gateways, led by a formidable boss.
Cauldron Descent, a longer, multi-stage trial where ever-changing rooms push Hunters to their limits—from brutal machine encounters to hidden doors that promise power and rewards for teams prepared to open them.
Both modes will be available in an upcoming closed playtest through the PlayStation Beta Program on PS5 and PC.
In Horizon Hunters Gathering, players choose from a roster of uniquely skilled Hunters – each with distinct melee or ranged playstyles and weapons – and select Hunter roles further embedded with a rogue-lite perk system to craft the build that best suits a player’s style and team.
These Hunters have their own motivations and secrets that tie into a larger story about the world of Horizon. The game features a narrative campaign that will introduce new mysteries, characters, and threats, but it’s under wraps for now. What the team can say is that Hunters Gathering is fully canon, and its story doesn’t end at launch!
As players hunt dangerous machines in the wilds, they’ll travel through a range of environments that bring missions and stories to life. Each location offers its own atmosphere, challenges, and opportunities for teams to explore and master together.
Between missions, players return to Hunters Gathering, a vibrant social hub where they can connect, prepare, and celebrate victories together. Here, players can customise Hunters, visit vendors, upgrade gear, and team up for their next adventure.
The first, small-scale closed playtest arrives at the end of February. Players can sign up via the PlayStation Beta Program and mark their interest in any future Horizon Hunters Gathering playtest on PC or PS5.
Guerrilla, part of PlayStation Studios, is known for creating the acclaimed Killzone and Horizon franchises. Based in Amsterdam, the studio pushes the boundaries of technical and artistic excellence across their games including Horizon Zero Dawn, Horizon Forbidden West, and now Horizon Hunters Gathering.

The first Story Pack for Borderlands 4, Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned, will launch in March and introduces multiple main missions and side missions set in a new zone of Kairos, new gear to earn, and heaps of new cosmetics.

Players who own Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition are automatically granted access to all of the content from the Bounty Pack Bundle (Bounty Packs 2, 3, 4, and 5) and Vault Hunter Pack (Story Packs 1 and 2), while Borderlands 4 Deluxe Edition grants the Bounty Pack Bundle.

WWE colour commentator Wade Barrett narrates overview of core gameplay features
Today, 2K revealed a new WWE® 2K26 Ringside Report, focusing on core gameplay improvements including new match types, interactive environments and objects, surprise attacks, start-of-match actions, new A.I. sequences, rivalries, a new commentary team, and interactive entrances. The latest in a planned series of feature set deep dives, including the previous report revealing details of the new Ringside Pass, Ringside Reports build anticipation for WWE 2K26, available starting March 6 for PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch™ 2, and PC via Steam.
Narrated by WWE colour commentator Wade Barrett, the Gameplay Ringside Report starts off with a glimpse at four all-new match types: Dumpster Match, I Quit Match, Three Stages of Hell and Inferno Match.
The Dumpster Match is a no-holds-barred brawl in which a competitor must throw their opponent into a dumpster and close the lid before they can escape. The match is demonstrated by footage of Je’Von Evans taking on Ethan Page in a parking lot environment, slamming him into a car before tossing him into the dumpster.
The I Quit Match is a brutal contest in which the first combatant to make their opponent verbally submit claims victory. Competitors can use steel chairs and other objects to apply limb-crushing pressure and physical punishment, wearing down an opponent’s will until they are forced to utter “I quit” into the referee’s outstretched microphone. In this case, Bron Breakker pins Seth Rollins’ arm between the seat and back of a steel chair in an attempt to force the submission.
In Three Stages of Hell, competitors must face off in up to three, back-to-back matches, with the first opponent to claim two-out-of-three falls securing the victory. Three Stages of Hell match types include normal rules, Extreme Rules, Inferno, I Quit, Dumpster, Hell in a Cell, Steel Cage, Table, Ladder, TLC, Casket, and Ambulance matches. WWE Legends “Stone Cold” Steve Austin and Triple H are shown doing battle in a normal match, followed by Extreme Rules and finally, a Steel Cage match.
The Inferno Match is a unique and sinister match type, wherein the ring is surrounded by a wall of flame, which burns higher and brighter as opponents slam one another onto the mat. Big impacts cause the flames to rise, adding to the risk and intensity as the match progresses. A classic matchup of Ministry of Darkness-era Undertaker vs Kane ‘98 (available as part of the Attitude Era Edition Pack) is shown in a match type the two know all too well. Undertaker claims the victory, as the referee rushes to douse the defeated Kane with a fire extinguisher.
The Ringside Report next focuses on core gameplay elements. First up, expansive new environments, as well as environmental and prop interactions, are shown. In the new Scrapyard environment, Becky Lynch ascends to great heights to punish Maxxine Dupree, while “Stone Cold” Steve Austin scoops Booker T up in the new, interactive shopping cart. Dominik Mysterio shows further use of the shopping cart by attacking his father, Rey Mysterio, as he lies defenceless in the cart, before crashing it into the ring. Next, Trick Williams takes on Ricky Saints, making his WWE 2K franchise debut, and demonstrates one of the most nefarious new interactive objects: A bag of thumbtacks. Williams is shown dumping the bag out on the ring mat, before superplexing Saints onto the pile of tacks.
Another new roster addition, Rey Fenix, is shown stacking tables, a new way to do damage to opponents in WWE 2K26. Fenix tosses his brother, Penta, over the top rope and through both tables at ringside, resulting in a pile of wood fragments and twisted metal. In title matches, championships are available on a pedestal at ringside and can be grabbed to inflict additional pain, as evidenced by CM Punk smashing Drew McIntyre with the World Heavyweight Championship.
Next, WWE Legend Chyna takes on Rhea Ripley in a fantasy match-up to demonstrate expanded crowd and barricade fighting, including new striking and grappling on top of the barricade. Surprise Attacks, available in certain environments, are on display as franchise newcomer Myles Borne bursts onto the scene to interfere in a Scrapyard battle between Ricky Saints and Ethan Page.
Start of Match Actions allow players to shake hands, take cheap shots, draw energy from the crowd, and engage in other actions that add to the storytelling, before the bell even rings. Pre-match interactions between Jade Cargill and Naomi, Road Dogg and X-Pac, and Wade Barrett and Sheamus are shown. All-new A.I. sequences are up next, allowing players to program a specific set of moves that A.I. will perform in a certain order, customisable in Create-A-Moveset, demonstrated here by Penta vs Chad Gable. Rivalries now extend into Play Now and Exhibition modes, causing matches and relationships to have lasting consequences. Heated exchanges between Rhea Ripley and Iyo Sky, and Naomi and Jade Cargill show how Universe-style rivalry actions have now extended to more casual game modes.
Presentation upgrades include an updated commentary team of Michael Cole, Wade Barrett, Corey Graves, and Booker T. Interactive entrances now allow players to control taunts, trigger pyro and play to the crowd. New referees and a new broadcast mode also add to the realism and immersion. With all these new and improved features, WWE 2K26 aims to allow players the freedom to live their WWE fantasies, and play their way.
Four editions of WWE 2K26 are available for pre-order now. King of Kings Edition, Attitude Era Edition, and Monday Night War Edition are scheduled for worldwide release on Friday, March 6, 2026, seven days prior to the Standard Edition, which will be available Friday, March 13, 2026.
