In an age where every new title seems to be introducing microtransactions, it’s always refreshing to hear of one that won’t.

The latest unreleased game to ditch microtransactions is Guerilla’s Horizon: Zero Dawn.

The confirmation was made over Twitter:

There will be no micro transactions in #HorizonZeroDawn

Horizon: Zero Dawn heads to PS4 on 28 February 28.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
