4. Horizon Zero Dawn

For what is already shaping up to be the the flagship PlayStation 4 exclusive of 2017, Guerrilla Games already has a lot of pressure resting on its shoulders with Horizon Zero Dawn without that to worry about.

The Killzone creator has had to deal with constant scepticism over whether it has the credentials to even attempt such an ambitious project such as this, considering linear first-person shooters are all they've ever been known for up until now, which is absurd. I mean, have you seen this thing in action?

The stark contrast between the natural and artificial beauty of Horizon's gorgeous world is astonishing, and besides the excitement I'm already feeling at the prospect of hatching a plan to bring down one of those colossal monstrosities pictured above, I'm fascinated by the narrative behind a world that has seen modern human civilisation collapse and why anyone thought it was a good idea to create robot dinosaurs.
