This is according to Anton Logvinov, an industry insider who accurately leaked the Horizon Zero Dawn PC port before it was revealed to the public. While fans should take this information with a big grain of salt, Logvinov has been accurate about video game news leaks in the past, and so he’s somewhat easier to believe than other random leakers online.

[HTML1] The closer we get to E3, the more rumors and leaks turn up everyday.
