Rumors are swirling about a remake of Horizon Zero Dawn for PS5, and the overwhelming reaction is that it shouldn’t happen. Yup, we’re dealing with another Last of Us Part 1 situation.
There are a couple of reasons for this sentiment. For one, Horizon Zero Dawn came out on Feb. 28, 2017 — meaning it’s barely five years old. Secondly, it’s still one of the most beautiful open-world titles out there. It has barely aged, if at all. Sure, the sequel looks better, but this isn’t a generational leap we’re talking about here.
Below, we’ve put together some of the best (and funniest) reactions toward a potential Horizon Zero Dawn remake.
Does it have to happen? Absolutely not.
Just to be clear, I think Horizon Zero Dawn is one of last generation’s finest games. But at most it should get a PS5 update, not a (potentially) $70 remake. This isn’t a trend Sony should continue. Sets a bad precedent.

I understand Guerilla is 4 times bigger than it used to be, but my brother in Christ you have Call of the Mountain and Horizon 3 to work on. I'd welcome a multiplayer project but a remake of Zero Dawn?? Are you high??

PlayStation’s first party studios are a collection of some of the best studios anywhere in the world. Stop rehashing games that don’t need to be rehashed.
There is literally no reason to remake Horizon Zero Dawn. Seriously hope this isn’t true. #Playstation

Other games are more deserving of a remake...
How are we prioritizing a Horizon Zero Dawn remaster/remake over oh idk BLOODBORNE or any number of titles from PlayStation IPs that have been dormant for far too long?

Sony wasn’t even willing to PORT the Sly Cooper series to PS5 for its 20TH ANNIVERSARY…

Zero memes? There's plenty!
The Last of Us remake is the most unnecessary remake in gaming
