It's certainly a possibility when you consider what a madman Ted Faro was. While there's no evidence to support it, I wonder if Elysium has anything to do with all of this? Maybe the last humans left alive, after the Faro Swarm stripped the planet bare, found a way to preserve themselves in their underground pyramid? Cryogenic freezing, consciousness uploading or some kind of underground closed ecosystem might have preserved them beyond their intended tenure. It's not clear if he is simply following his programming or has become a completely rogue entity after having his system hacked by a as of yet undisclosed third party. Obviously, finding a backup of Apollo would be Sylens' dream come true, but Hades' motivation is a bit more muddled. Some have suggested that any DLC for the game might revolve around these two characters. The latter is continuing on his quest for knowledge while the former is a bit of a wildcard.

There's also the question of Apollo, which brings us to the after-credits stinger. Given their assigned tasks, it makes sense for them to be in those locations. On the other hand AI constructs like Aether and Minerva (atmosphere and communications) might be located in orbit above the planet. Hephaestus is probably in a Cauldron under a mountain somewhere. While Artemis, Demeter and Eleuthia (in charge of reintroducing animals, plants and humans respectively) are in all likelihood located on the surface of the earth somewhere. Poseidon, for example, might be located in some underwater base. I think it's safe to assume that each of the subordinate AI mainframes (with the exception of Hades) are in different locations than Gaia. If that were the case then Aloy might have some traveling to do. The thing is, maybe that has to be done by someone onsite with Alpha Prime access. Here's the kicker though, 'why would anyone go up there?' As it turns out there could be a very good reason to do so.Īfter defeating Hades, Aloy's next task is to reboot Gaia and re-establish her connections to the seven surviving subordinate AI systems. Things like an space elevator connected to a ring habitat and geosynchronous assembly yard would definitely be within the realm of possibility. That might make it sound like a dead end story-wise, but in order to build something like the Odyssey, I think there would have to be pretty extensive infrastructure setup in orbit around earth.

Sadly, it was a total failure due to an matter/antimatter power generator accident while exiting the solar system. Instead of going underground though, the idea was to use a spaceship called the Odyssey to relocate to a neighboring star system. Amongst some of the text files that players can find scattered about the world, several mention a project called 'Far Zenith.' Much like the Zero Dawn project, it was an attempt to preserve humanity in the face of its imminent destruction by the Faro Swarm.

This might be an exaggeration, or it might not. In the debut trailer for the game, the narration explains that the Old Ones built towers that reached the sky.

The question is 'where to go from here?' As it turns out there's a lot of possible directions the series can go (spoilers to follow, obviously). With 2.6 million copies sold in the first two weeks, I think it's safe to say Horizon: Zero Dawn is going to get a sequel.
