Game of E3 easily for me. Can't wait to hear more

 

[Despera]

Awesome showing at the conference. Love that it's a new IP and they didn't just show a CG concept trailer but actual gameplay.

It's rumoured to be open world, and I;d like to see how that fits in, hard to tell based on this showing.

Actually it's confirmed to be open world.

For the new page.

We’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new third-person action RPG, Horizon Zero Dawn! Watch the trailer above to catch your first glimpse of the game!

Horizon Zero Dawn is set in a lush, beautiful open world where nature has reclaimed the ruins of a forgotten civilization. It is a world where mankind is not the dominant species, and highly advanced machines sit at the top of the food chain. You play as Aloy, a young outcast from a tribal society, who has learned to hunt the machines. Intent on unraveling the many mysteries that surround her, Aloy embarks on a quest that will lead her to discover her own destiny.

Along the way, Aloy will face off against an entire menagerie of machines – some traveling in herds, others roaming in solitude, all of them presenting a formidable danger. You will need to learn their behaviors, attack patterns and weak points in order to survive. You must use the beautiful environments to your advantage, and employ stealth, agility, and cunning to approach your prey unseen.

[Primethius]

Man, I really enjoyed this reveal.

And god damn, that music. I need a longer version stat!

 

[JJD]

This is really open world? Sources?

Looking like game of the show for me.

 

[UpUpDownDown]

Taking about horizon with gg on YouTube right now.

 

[Artex]

Looks cool but what the fuck with that dialogue?

 

[J-Man]

Actually it's confirmed to be open world.

Awesome, can't wait to see more of that!

 

[Xord]

Looks good to me.

Now that, ladies and gentlemen, was gorgeous. I mean stunningly good.

[Bare Grills]

Never been much of a fan of the killzone series but am definitely excited for this. This, U4 and TLG having wanting a ps4

 

[0.1.1.2.3.5.8.13.21.34.55]

Looks just like the concept art.... Incredible in motion.

 

[Kaizer]

I'm going to love this game.

 

[UpUpDownDown]

"open world action rpg" from the man himself.

Crafting etc.

 

[dracula_x]

That game the greatest thing I ever saw today.

 

[a secret-boss]

Monster Hunter game I can get behind

 

[Emperor_Uriel]

I like the talking too. People are all "it's too cocky and Drake-esque," but the industry doesn't really have a female counterpart for Drake.

Most female protagonists are reserved, stoic and/or refined, a rough and loud girl is a welcome change.

mm 2016. can't wait. but i'm sure it'll be fall 2016. but hope to get more information later this year.

 

[TheKastorian]

Definitely the best looking game of the conference! Still can't believe what these wizards at Guerilla have pulled off.

 

[Captain Smirk]

THUNDERJAW!

 

[Iastfan112]

Favorite of E3 thus far. Setting and mystery behind the world has me intrigued, game looks gorgeous and the combat was interesting. Trailer implied(to me anyways) they're going with a pre-established character, which I know bothers some, but I prefer.

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

gg are talking to geoff right now

- open world action rpg
- stealth, set traps, be agile
- loot based system, craft new weapons/ammo
- watcher/grazer/thunder jaw/long necks (diff classes of enemies)

 

[Lemondish]

The story seems incredibly stupid (I'm waiting to see how laughable the explanation is for a robot dinosaur ecology) but it looks good.

Science fiction is filled with stories about how our devotion to technological innovation eventually gives birth to artificial intelligence.

And nobody said that intelligence just stops at the first bipedal robot. No reason they wouldn't continue to adapt and change just as organics do. Not stupid at all - it actually seems pretty natural.

 

[samar11]

Yup my game of the show by far, followed by UC4

 

[Futurematic]

Any words of coop or online features?

Co-op not mentioned, nor online.

Notes: loot, action focused demo with RPG talk later, story is set 1000 years in the future (post post apocalypse) journey to find out about yourself & machines,

Sweet.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

MGS5 notwithstanding, this may have shot up to the top of my most anticipated games. The premise is just so bananas and it looks absolutely gorgeous in motion. I just hope the RPG hooks are really strong.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

fuck me

 

[Canucked]

I know this got buried in one titanic press conference, but this was game of the night for me.


I wanted to pick up a controller and play.

 

[Vanillalite]

GOTS so far for me

New IP that fully delivered and then some

 

[GustyGardens]

I can't wait to see this game first hand, I hope it plays well. The main character was a bit chatty, but that's nothing that I can't get over. I really like the enemy designs as well. The entire game has a really nice vibe.

 

[Lemondish]

I like the talking too. People are all "it's too cocky and Drake-esque," but the industry doesn't really have a female counterpart for Drake.

Most female protagonists are reserved, stoic and/or refined, a rough and loud girl is a welcome change.

She comes off exactly as I would imagine a tribal hunter would - proud, bold, even bordering on boastful.

 

[Flakster99]

So far, my game of the show. Looks absolutely incredible.

 

[Schryver]

mm 2016. can't wait. but i'm sure it'll be fall 2016. but hope to get more information later this year.

targeting but hopefully. this might be my dream game

 

[-Deimos]

Hmm..they didn't explicitly say it's a PS4 exclusive.

Spoiler

I can dream, ok

 

[MilesTeg]

I thought the game looked great. Pretty awesome reveal.

 

[OneUh8]

Game of the show for me. Stunning.

 

[Kssio_Aug]

This one was a really awesome surprise!!

 

[NeoROCK]

More GIFs coming&#8230;. give me a minute.

well said

the killzone games lacked a good coherent story but that seemingly wont be the case with horizon as they hired new people who've had experience in storytelling in rpgs.

but i make no guarantees

 

[Endo Punk]

Game looks so good I don't blame them for being so sure that it's a new franchise and not a one off game. Infinitely more appealing than Guerilla's last IP.

 

[Lord Error]

This has surprisingly shown how much GG have evolved in game making. I really liked KZ2 and KZ:SF, but this is something else entirely. It was especially good seeing that the gameplay was so interesting and well realized, what with the robodino behaving as intricately as it did. I was expecting just some kind of open world shooting from GG, not something seemingly far more refined like this.

Sony has really shown lots of great stuff at this conference, but this game probably looked the most ambitious, to be honest.

 

[StrongBlackVine]

This looks amazing!

I can't wait to see more of different dinosaurs. I wonder if it's open world?

Anyway, I liked the narration, gives her some personality. I swear I would say the same things if I were in her situation.

Open world RPG.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

Man, I love the design of the main character. She's beautiful, but not in your typical video game heroine kind of way. She's the kind of character I try to make when I'm allowed to create my own.

 

[Gnilres]

This was my biggest surprise of the show and honestly won it for me. As amazing as FFVII and Shenmue look, this was outstanding.

 

[JJD]

gg are talking to geoff right now

Damn

 

[Kin5290]

Holy god, this looks amazing. Open world, iron-age hunters versus robot dinosaurs and a female protagonist? This game can't come soon enough.
