Developers have also revealed a first-look trailer at the upcoming PSVR2 title Horizon: Call Of The Mountain and revealed a few narrative hints about what to expect from the storyline of the game.

According to a blog, “in Call Of The Mountain, you’ll be seeing it through the eyes of Ryas, a former Shadow Carja Warrior who hopes to redeem himself by investigating a grave new threat to the Sundom. He is a master at climbing and archery, two skills crucial to survival as you step into his shoes, scaling perilous mountains and taking down mighty machines like the Thunderjaw.”

“Throughout your journey, you’ll master various tools and weapons and use the world’s many materials to craft additional gear, equipping you for any situation. But you won’t be going it alone. Along the way, you’ll meet Horizon characters new and old, including Aloy herself,” the post continues.

As it stands, neither Call Of The Mountain nor the PSVR2 has a release date, though reports indicate that the new console will be released in early 2023.
