Get to Know the Backstory of Horizon Zero Dawn’s 5 Unique Tribes

Banuk

You could make your way through the whole of Horizon Zero Dawn and never come across the Banuk tribe. Tucked away in the very North of the map, you’ll rarely visit their home.

For a long time, the Banuk have lived up in the mountains, trying to live in harmony with the machines that roam the world. Made up of fearless hunters and mysterious shamans, they’re constantly trying to prove their worth against increasingly stacked odds, and favor this over engaging with others.

Due to their isolationism, the Banuk are often deemed to be just as mysterious, primitive, and savage as the Nora tribe.
