The Game
Centered around the hunter Aloy as she tries to uncover the past of her parentage after being outcast by her tribe. The role-playing game puts you face to face with giant, deadly machines, as well as rival tribes in order to discover the destiny of the young hunter and stop a catastrophic threat to the future.
Immersing you in an open-world future Earth overrun by the aforementioned machines. You will have to use a combination of stealth and skill to take them down to harvest their parts in order to upgrade and continue on with your quest.
In the Complete Edition, you will also get The Frozen Wilds expansion that gives a vast, new area which as the title alludes to - is a snow-filled environment full of new machines and a brand new story to tackle.
As expected there are also upgrades for the PC including ultra-widescreen support, unlocked frame rates and graphical customization options. The game already looked stunning on PlayStation but there will also be tweaks to the reflections, dynamic foliage, and more enhancements that will really take the game to the next level visually. If you’ve not got a beast gaming PC, you’ll want one for this!
