Industry insider shinobi602 returned to provide some more information on Horizon: Zero Dawn, Guerrilla Games’ upcoming open world action adventure, and Knack 2, the recently announced sequel to the critically panned action platformer.

Some fans felt a bit antsy about Horizon’s release date, especially because questions about it were dodged but shinobi602 noted on GAF that he “Wouldn’t worry, they hit beta a few weeks back. It good baby.” With more than two months before release, that would indicate Guerrilla is on the right track.

As for Knack 2, there will be some pretty hefty changes from the original. Asked if the developer would push for a cinematic presentation like the first game, shinobi602 responded that, “They learned a LOT of lessons from The Order. Expect more focus on gameplay systems and mechanics.”

Horizon: Zero Dawn is out on February 28th 2017 while Knack 2 is out later in the year. As usual this piece of information must be taken with a grain of salt but shinobi602 has a solid track record. What are your thoughts on both? Let us know below.
