Uncovering the mysteries of the world before it was destroyed by the machines is what drives the story of Horizon Zero Dawn above all else, and though a lot of those questions have, of course, been answered, there's plenty more left for the upcoming Horizon Forbidden West to dig into.

And key to most of those mysteries will be Elisabet Sobeck- a character that died centuries before the first game began, but was and will remain crucial to the series' overarching story. As such, ahead of Forbidden West's looming launch, here, we're going to go catch up on the full story of Dr. Elisabet Sobeck in time for the sequel.
