Aloy from Horizon Zero Dawn is joining Genshin Impact

The bow-wielding hero joins a very different open world adventure.

What you need to know

  • Aloy is the protagonist of Horizon Zero Dawn and the upcoming Horizon Forbidden West.
  • Aloy will be available in Genshin Impact through a crossover event later this year.
  • Players will need to be Adventure Rank 20 or higher to unlock Aloy.

The world of Genshin Impact continues to grow. In addition to the recent 2.0 update, players on PS4 and PS5 will soon be able to unlock a new five-start hero: Aloy! Crossing over from the world of Horizon Zero Dawn, this red-headed archer is taking a break from fighting mysterious tribes and corrupted machines, per the official announcement.

Aloy is a five-star hero, classified as the "Savior From Another World" and a Cryo type. Unlocking Aloy is being divided into two phases. Players who have reached Adventure Rank 20 or higher will be able to unlock her through in-game mail starting on October 13. After that, players on any other platforms will be able to unlock Aloy on November 24, but they'll still have to have reached Adventure Rank 20 or higher.

Aloy's next mainline game, Horizon Forbidden West, is currently slated to arrive at some point during the 2021 holiday period, though there's still no exact release date. If you're not Adventure Rank 20 yet, you've got some time to work towards getting there in time to unlock Aloy. Genshin Impact's recent updates have added new features like cross-progression, DualSense haptic feedback support on PS5 and the realm of Inazuma.

Experienced travelers should have no problem making their way to Inazuma now that Update 2.0 is out. For anyone new to the game, you'll need to level up quite a bit before you can get in on the fun.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
