Sitecore Horizon is only available up to 10.2, and the module will no longer be provided starting from 10.3. In fact, the Horizon-based XM Cloud editing tool, Pages, has taken over the Horizon module, and since it is now our policy to enhance the functionality of XM Cloud, we have decided to release up to 10.2 for the Platform.
Summary
The major change in this 10.3 release is the release of Headless SXA based on Next.js. This will enable existing customers to start development based on Next.js and smoothly migrate to XM Cloud in the future.
