New “Generation Zero” Collector’s Edition revealed

2 min read
Supply difficulties with the Dala horse lead to the Edition being pulled out of the current offering; delisting of the old Collector’s Edition is happening; new Collector’s Edition without the horse and at lower price point is currently being listed

The Dalecarlian horse (aka the Dala horse) will not be part of the Generation Zero Collector’s Edition. Due to the late arrival of the Dala horses and making an in-time assembling of the Edition impossible, THQ Nordic will take action and will pull the horse from the Collector’s Editions and from all retail customers.

“We are currently working on a solution to offer the Generation Zero Dala horse as a completely separate item via retail outlets later this spring. Stay tuned for further info!”, comments Jan Binsmaier, Publishing Director at THQ Nordic GmbH.

The new Collector’s Edition will come without the Dala horse, and at a new SRP of £64.99 / €69.99 / $69.99 (old SRP was £74.99 / €79.99 / $79.99) and the following content:

  • The game
  • A T-shirt
  • A premium Steelbook™ game case
  • Premium Box
  • A cloth map of the game world
  • 4 Concept Art postcards

About Generation Zero
Experience an explosive game of cat and mouse set in a vast open world. In this reimagining of 1980s Sweden, hostile machines have invaded the serene countryside, and you need to fight back while unravelling the mystery of what is really going on. By utilizing battle tested guerrilla tactics, you’ll be able to lure, cripple, or destroy enemies in intense, creative sandbox skirmishes.

Go it alone, or team-up with up to three of your friends in seamless co-op multiplayer. Collaborate and combine your unique skills to take down enemies, support downed friends by reviving them, and share the loot after an enemy is defeated.

All enemies are persistently simulated in the world and roam the landscape with intent and purpose. When you manage to destroy a specific enemy component, be it armour, weapons or sensory equipment, the damage is permanent. Enemies will bear those scars until you face them again, whether that is minutes, hours or weeks later.

Explore a vast open world, rendered with the award-winning Apex engine, featuring a full day/night cycle with unpredictable weather, complex AI behaviour, simulated ballistics, highly realistic acoustics and a dynamic 1980’s soundtrack. In Generation Zero, living is winning.
