Plenty or horizon fans would be fine with another full price dlc.

Although spin-offs and even an MMORPG then surfaced, there were hopes that a new single-player title would arrive as soon as 2027.
I think plenty of Horizon fans would be just fine if they integrated a non-live-service multiplayer mode alongside the main single player mode, but AAAs have just about forgotten how to make multiplayer modes that aren’t live service.

What does “non-live-service multiplayer mode” mean? Just release a new game mode and don’t update it anymore?

Sure, don’t update it, and it will continue to exist without further intervention from the developer. We used to get this all the time. A multiplayer mode that isn’t expected to continue to grow or maintain an active player base month after month, because that’s an absurd goal to hit that only a lucky few will ever succeed at under the best of circumstances.

But if they only release one map – how will they sell the others? Checkmate.

Gotta double charge. Really important.
