PlayStation-owned Guerrilla Games is reportedly scaling back its live-service ambitions for Horizon Hunters Gathering due to negative playtest feedback. The game is being reworked to be a smaller-scope multiplayer experience with a story mode, and many developers will be reassigned. This follows Sony's broader struggles with live-service titles and recent layoffs across PlayStation Studios.
