GAMES DESTROYER: Guerrilla Games accidentally publishes unfinished Ubisoft title

Developer Guerrilla Games accidentally published a game they found partially-finished in a dumpster behind Ubisoft's main office, sources confirmed over the weekend. The title, called Horizon: Zero Dawn, was an open-world role-playing game with light crafting elements would take players across a huge map full of towers to climb and bullet-sponge enemies to mindlessly shoot as is expected of modern Ubisoft titles. Horizon: Zero Dawn had not yet gone into post-production and was still missing character animations, geometry detail, and a significant level of game balance.

"Our team has been hard at work at the story," said an employee at Guerrilla Games. "Video games are art now, and as such we need to create a compelling, emotional story that resonates with its players." When asked about the striking similarity between the gameplay mechanics between Horizon: Zero Dawn and recent Ubisoft release Far Cry Primal, the representative reaffirmed that the story would leave players in tears, and they were currently hard at work at implementing a parent-child relationship "sure to emotion the pants right off of you."

GAMES DESTROYER reached out to Ubisoft for comment, but so far the fully-automated game studio has yet to respond. Horizon: Zero Dawn is expected to release at the highest Metacritic score of the year, rivaling that of former Sony darling The Last of Us.
