Aloy will be a primary protagonist in the adaptation, according to Blackman. He’ll collaborate with Michelle Lovretta on turning the IP into a full-fledged series, along with his writing partner.
Horizon Zero Dawn is an exceptionally well-crafted game with excellent, original characters not often seen in the gaming world.” Blackman told Netflix’s Tudum. “Guerrilla Games has created an incredibly lush and vivid world of man and machine who find themselves on a collision course to oblivion.”
“Their salvation comes in the form of a young female warrior named Aloy, who has no idea she’s the key to saving the world,” he continued. “Suffice it to say, yes, Aloy will be the main character in our story.”
The announcement leaves fans wondering if the show will offer a look into how machines came to take over the world or answer other questions introduced in the video game.
Blackman is also working on an International Space Station-based Orbital series with the Horizon Zero Dawn adaptation.
