We’ll regularly refresh the featured worlds, so be sure to check back often.


Horizon Season: Social Experiences to Share with Friends

During the winter months, we have an exciting lineup of social games, live sports, and iconic events that will keep you exploring new immersive adventures with friends and communities you love. We also have new limited-time rewards you can unlock all Horizon Season long, including a K-pop inspired emote, exclusive avatar wearables, and more.

Leveled Up Games

First up on December 20, Super Rumble is getting a major update. We’re giving you more content—20 new quests with new rewards to earn, Super Power updates including a Super Net redesign and new VFX for Super Jump and Super Punch, and weapon updates for more engaging gunplay. And be on the lookout for our Thursday Night Rumble events, which are making a comeback!

Next, on January 1, we’ll drop a brand new game: Shootball. Imagine the competitive thrill of soccer combined with the drama and suspense of a first-person shooter. Grab your friends and jump in—it’s strategic chaos you won’t want to miss.
