From the frozen mountain ranges of the north to the hot, dense jungles of the south, the world of Horizon spans a wide variety of different geographies. Overgrown ruins linger throughout, marking the vestiges of a lost civilization.
The world of Horizon is inhabited by highly advanced machines of all shapes and sizes. Terrifyingly alien yet strikingly familiar, these mysterious automatons combine mechanical strength with organic shapes and an animalistic ferocity.
In the world of Horizon, the last remnants of mankind have regrouped into distinct tribes. Cut off from the knowledge and technological advancements of the past, each tribe has developed its own rich culture and traditions.
Horizon Forbidden West sees Aloy traverse dangerous and harsh environments in search of Gaia’s sub-functions, with hopes of restoring the planet’s terraforming system, rebalancing the biosphere and saving life on Earth. Though our story is set 1,000 years into the future, players will uncover and recognize many iconic locations from our real world today. DISCLAIMER: […]
