Horizon Steel Frontiers Overview
Horizon Steel Frontiers is an upcoming MMORPG that serves as a new, multiplayer entry in the globally acclaimed Horizon franchise. The game is set in the Deadlands, a new region in the post-apocalyptic United States inspired by Arizona and New Mexico, where players take on the role of a customizable Machine Hunter to explore a dangerous frontier.
The central premise revolves around cooperation and competition, with thousands of players sharing the world to hunt colossal mechanical beasts and vie for resources and control against rival tribes like the Nora, Tenakth, and Oseram. Its core gameplay blends the franchise's signature hunting action with MMORPG mechanics, including highly customizable combat, the crucial ability to target and detach machine components, and unique systems like using a Pullcaster to grapple onto machines for quick trap placement and status effects.
Developed by NCSoft in collaboration with Guerrilla Games, the game is designed to be cross-platform for Mobile (iOS and Android) and PC (via NCSoft's PURPLE platform), marking a significant, mobile-first expansion of the Horizon universe for a global audience, though specific reception and official release dates are still pending as the game was only revealed at G-Star 2025.

Horizon Steel Frontiers Gameplay
Horizon Steel Frontiers is a massive multiplayer title featuring a cooperative hunting loop, where players track and defeat colossal machines to harvest components for crafting better gear. This takes place in a persistent shared MMORPG world with large-scale raids and potential PvP.
The combat emphasizes a shift toward dynamic melee action using customizable weapons, while still retaining ranged targeting of machine weak points. A key new mechanic is the Pullcaster (grappling hook), which allows hunters to rapidly close the distance to damaged machines and place traps. Players will face major challenges like powerful, colossal machines and cooperative Cauldrons (dungeons) that demand coordinated team strategy.
