Exciting news for the fans of the popular video game, Horizon Zero Dawn, as it's confirmed that the game will be adapted into a movie. The PlayStation game developed by Guerilla Games is an action role-playing game set in a post-apocalyptic world where mechanical creatures have taken over.

Horizon Zero Dawn has been praised by critics and players alike for its rich narrative, innovative combat mechanisms, and the detailed world it presents. The game's protagonist, Aloy, is particularly appreciated for being a strong, relatable female character. The game has sold over 10 million copies since its release in 2017, showing its enormous popularity.
