Horizon Zero Dawn Is Getting The Movie Treatment

Sony
is
continuing
its
plans
for
world
domination
via
the

Horizon
franchise,
this
time
announcing
that
Aloy
is
coming
to
the
big
screen
in
a
movie
adaption.

The
Horizon
games
were
previously
going
to
be
turned
into
a
live-action
series
on
Netflix,
but
plans
have
seemingly
changed
as
PS
production’s
boss
Asad
Qizilbash
relayed
at
CES
2025.

“Columbia
Pictures
and

PlayStation
Productions
are
at
the
early
stages
of
developing
a
film
adaptation
of
the
award-winning
Horizon
Zero
Dawn”
said
Asad
onstage.

“Just
imagine,
Aloy’s
beloved
origin
story
set
in
a
vibrant,
far
future
world
filled
with
the
giant
machines,
brought
to
you
for
the
first
time
on
the
big
screen.”

No
director
was
announced
and
no
casting
was
revealed
though,
so
quite
honestly
there’s
every
chance
the
movie
will
never
happen.

A
Helldivers
movie
was
also
revealed
at
the
same
event.

The
Horizon
series
is,
of
course,
currently
the
apple
of
Sony’s
eye
and
when
you
consider
the
numbers
it’s
easy
to
see
why:
Horizon
Zero
Dawn
and

Horizon
Forbidden
West
have
sold
a
combined
34
million
units.
As
such,
there
are

reportedly
16
different
Horizon
projects
being
worked
on,
a
number
which
resulted
in
a
lot
of
people
wondering
if
it’s
all
a
bit
much.

The
weird
thing
about
the
Horizon
games
is
how
wildly
successful
they
are
in
terms
of
numbers,
while
also
rarely
ever
being
talked
about.
It’s
strange
to
see
a
series
doing
so
well,
and
yet
culturally
speaking
the
discussion
around
it
always
seems
muted.
But
muted
or
not,
you
can’t
argue
with
those
sales
numbers,
though
16
projects
does
seem
like
overkill.

One
of
those
projects
was
presumably
the
recently
released

Lego
Horizon
Adventures
which
turned
out
to
be
100%
a
game
that
was
released.
That’s
all
I
can
say
about
it
really.
It
was
kind
of
bland,
and
seems
to
have
made
no
impact
in
terms
of
sales.
But
then
again,
it
didn’t
seem
to
have
much
of
a
target
audience.
