<p>The official PS5 Showcase gave us a tease of <a href="https://whatoplay.com/ps4/horizon-zero-dawn" title="Horizon Zero Dawn on PS4">Horizon Zero Dawn's</a> sequel.

<p>The Horizon Forbidden West event is said to be 20-minutes long. It will allow fans a look at 14-minutes of brand new in-game footage, all captured on the PS5's modern tech. Hopefully the showcase will give us a look at some new robot/animal hybrids. Or, the new adversaries that Aloy will be going up against.</p>

<p>We know very little of the plot of Horizon Forbidden West. With the first game revealing what happened with the world, it would be fascinating to see how everything has grown apart from the world that Aloy lives in.</p>
