3. Perfectly Trapping A Boss Using Tripwires - Horizon Zero Dawn
Horizon is a new RPG from the creators of Killzone that mixes post-apocalyptic settings with giant robot enemies and wildlife. Along with this setting is an intriguing and powerful arsenal, including an all-powerful bow and arrow, as well as several types of tripwire that are explosive and strategically appealing.
Watching gameplay in action, it's clear that the bow will be key to the player's survival, with the tripwire offering an interesting wrinkle to every combat situation, whether it's booby-trapping all exits of a potential battlefield, or even attaching multiple wires to a giant boss until they're completely vulnerable to any attack you can muster.
The ability to stop giant mechanical beasts in their tracks in an effective manner could prove to be quite the game changer. With traps typically being only a mild inconvenience in many other games, the tripwires in Horizon will allow players to exercise their strategic muscles in any combat situation. This added element of strategy within a fast-paced action RPG could help Horizon stand out in the hearts of modern RPG fans.
