The next Horizon video game might be years away, but fans can return to Aloy’s world in the future, as Horizon Forbidden West: Seeds of Rebellion is coming to Kickstarter in November. Horizon Forbidden West: Seeds of Rebellion is an officially licensed 1-4 player co-op board game, allowing players to explore the world of Horizon Forbidden West in the time before Aloy’s arrival.
Horizon Forbidden West: Seeds of Rebellion is being developed by Steamforged Games, the same company behind many video game into board game adaptations, with the most recent being Resident Evil: The Board Game. Steamforged has already produced Horizon Zero Dawn: The Board Game, which casts the players as hunters trying to survive in a world dominated by robotic animals.
