Well, that looks…familiar. Who did Polaris Quest think it was fooling when it designed a 3D open-world game with awesome mechanimals? The to-be-launched game looks to be one very similar to the well-known series called Horizon, but it’s not related.

So imagine the joy when it was announced that the number of Mangler respawns will be significantly reduced in the new update?
