Yesterday’s announcement of Horizon Forbidden West preorders and various editions mentioned something called “Strike,” which Guerrilla Games hasn’t talked about before. However, thanks to an FAQ posted on PlayStation’s website, we know Strike is a board game that Aloy can play with NPCs.
“Strike is the board game played by inhabitants of the world of Horizon,” reads the FAQ. “It is played with carved wooden and metal pieces in the shapes of machines. Aloy will be introduced to Strike in Horizon Forbidden West and she can challenge many different NPCs to a match.”
So, something like Gwent, then? We’ll find out in due course.
Strike pieces are included in Horizon Forbidden West‘s Collector’s Edition, Digital Deluxe Edition, and Regalla Edition. The Digital Deluxe and Collector’s Editions will include an in-game Apex Clawstrider Machine Strike piece, and the Regalla Edition will include replica Sunwing and Clawstrider Machine physical Strike pieces alongside the in-game Apex Clawstrider Machine Strike piece.
The FAQ also reveals that Horizon Forbidden West will include voice-overs in the following languages: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, Latin American Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese. Subtitles will be available in the following languages: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Japanese, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Dutch, Danish, Norwegian, Finnish, Swedish, Hungarian, Czech, Turkish, Greek, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Thai, and Korean.
Preordering Horizon Forbidden West will net you the Nora Legacy Outfit and Spear for use in the game when it finally launches on February 18th, 2022.
