Horizon Zero Dawn 40% Off During Steam Summer Sale

If you haven’t already checked out Guerrilla Games’ open-world masterpiece Horizon Zero Dawn, this Steam Summer Sale is the time to do it. This unforgettable post-apocalyptic RPG takes you through Aloy’s journey of self-discovery in a land riddled with corrupted robotic beasts and tales of her destiny. Whether sneakily taking down Striders or scaling up a seemingly insurmountable Tallneck, the robotic wildlife make the world of Horizon feel incredibly noteworthy. This game is also no stranger to tackling subversive themes like grief, abandonment, purpose, and even faith. Aloy presents as a powerful female protagonist driven by her unknown past and desire to explore a world she barely knows. This discovery, along with many subsequent missions and stumbling blocks along the way, propels you along your journey through this fascinating dystopian sandbox. 

Even with all these incredible achievements, the game can still fall a bit flat at times. All the wonder and thrill of discovering a new mechanical beast comes coupled with repetitive, dull dialogue from human NPCs. The combat mechanics can also feel dry with limited stealth options and weapons, especially as you progress further into the story. Despite its shortcomings, this game is still a monumental achievement for Guerrilla Games. With Horizon Forbidden West still set to release sometime this year, there’s no better time to hop on Steam and snag this deal for 40% off.
