Horizon Forbidden West developer Guerrilla Games seems to be recruiting external studios to develop new games in the franchise.

In a Guerrilla Games job listing for co-dev producer, the studio seeks applicants to join a specialized team "overseeing externally produced game projects." And while it isn't unusual for studios to outsource asset development, the job listing seems to clearly indicate that other studios will be making entire games - not just assets for games - based in the Horizon universe.

"As a Co-Dev Producer at Guerrilla, you will help us expand the Horizon universe in new and exciting directions. In this role, you will be part of a specialized group overseeing externally produced game projects," a blurb from the job listing reads.

Horizon Forbidden West is due to launch on PS4 and PS5 on February 18, 2022. Read about a couple of new skills being added to the game's "completely redesigned" skill tree.

After earning an English degree from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
