Just when you thought to yourself, "Why aren't there any cavemen vs robot dinosaur titles?" Guerilla Games comes along and drops exactly this, and something drastically different compared to what their known for! At the E3 Sony Conference, their new IP is introduced, and this is Horizon: Zero Dawn.

As a Third Person Action RPG Open World game, Horizon is a far cry from Killzone - Guerilla's flagship series - in thatthe latter featured mankind using technology to master themselves and others, and the former is based in a setting where mankind is not in sync with technology and instead masters of themselves.

In a the ruins of a forgotten civilization, highly advanced machines hunt the remants of humanity who have now regressed to tribal society, and the game centers itself on the adventure of the outcast Aloy, as she follows her destiny of unraveling the mysterious narrative of Horizon: Zero Dawn.

Beset by a steel menagerie, Aloy must use the gifts natural to humans by taking advantage of stealth, cunning, agility, and resourcefulness to survive the hordes of these mechanical saurian-like creatures. By careful planning, each encounter becomes a hunt, where players can exploit the weakness of these machines - it helps that humanity has developed weapons and tools that combine both natural materials with mechanical parts, as Aloy will need all the help she can get in her solitude journey of man versus machine.
