Sony and Guerrilla Games have revealed the next Horizon game, Horizon Hunters Gathering, and playtests for the surprise Monster Hunter-like co-op action game will start this month – though you can sign up for the Horizon Hunters Gathering playtest right now.
"Our first, small-scale closed playtest arrives at the end of February," Guerrilla announced, promising that the "final shape" of the game will change based on feedback from testers.
To sign up for the Horizon Hunters Gathering playtest, you'll need to join the PlayStation Beta program. After signing up, you should receive an email explaining what to expect, including "email invitations to upcoming betas, feature tests, and platform updates."
There is also a Horizon Hunters Gathering Discord server set up, where members of Guerrilla have assured more details to come.
In that Discord, principal Guerrilla community manager Anne van der Zanden confirmed that, "If you use the link we shared, or the one that's in the PS Blog, it will let the system know you signed up because you're interested in the Horizon Hunters Gathering playtest!"
She also reiterated that the test is coming "end of February." It's unclear how long the test will run.
"Though it's still early on, you can expect more regular development updates and playtest announcements from us in the coming months," says game director Arjan Bak.
"We will be sharing more info on the playtest pretty soon!" added van der Zanden.
Horizon Hunters Gathering will support crossplay between PS5 and PC, with cross-progression tied to your PlayStation account, so your choice of platform won't affect your ability to play long-term.
