* Along with their reveal of more information on the next PlayStation VR headset, Sony introduced the first title to be announced for the device. It’s based in the Horizon franchise, and is called Horizon Call of the Mountain. In a video released alongside the announcement a short clip, presumably in game, was shown. In the clip the perspective is from the gamer’s, and is floating along a creek in a boat and looking up at a creature called a tall neck. You watch as the creature gets closer to you, then in a moment of suspense lifts its back foot over you and safely to the other side of the boat. I would imagine within a VR headset this scene would be much more impactful and frightening, as the possibility of getting squished by a building sized creature would feel terrifying. This is what Jan-Bart van Been, Studio Director and Studio Art & Animation Director for Guerrilla had to say about the game, “We don’t want to reveal too much just yet, but this story will be told through the eyes of an entirely new character. You will also meet Aloy, other familiar faces, and new characters along the way, and we’ll be introducing you to the protagonist of Horizon Call of the Mountain soon.”
