Horizon Zero Dawn

When we first saw Horizon Zero Dawn behind closed doors at E3 some years back , the team looked at each other after the presentation and noted that the game was going to be something special . And after the game dropped , we were proven correct .
Horizon Zero Dawn is a fantastic open-world experience , but it ' s the world that it lets you play in that is the true star here . The design of the world is a joy to play in , all the while giving players a surprisingly deep story that connected on many fronts .
You also really can ' t go wrong with the idea of fighting robot dinosaurs , because , well , robot dinosaurs are about as cool as it gets . It ' s all even more impressive when you realize that Horizon Zero Dawn is the first stab at the open-world genre for Guerrilla Games .
