START OF TRAILER
Earth-1355... The ruins of the Old Ones. A world where mechanical beings known as Machines have become the dominant species ruling over the remnants of humanity.
The scene cuts to Zoro Roronoa, Maya Tendo, Asta, Noelle Silva, Meliodas, and Trafalgar D. Water Law arriving what seems to be the ruins of a modern city, judging from the rusted streetlights, as well as buildings. They are currently in a place known as Devil's Thirst, which was once known as Colorado Springs in Colorado.
"This is... Aloy-san's world?" Maya questioned.
"Seems like it." Zoro added.
"Doesn't look like a city stuck in medieval ages to me." Asta described.
"I wonder what caused this city to be like this." Trafalgar added.
"Whatever caused it, then they'll never be sorry!" Meliodas exclaimed.
"But how do you know Aloy-san must have ended up here?" Noelle asked.
"One of the workers said that he had glimpses of her entering from the portal that leads here." Maya concluded. "And from the look of it, there has to be a reason why she chose to enter here." She added.
"Whatever that case, then Aloy-san has to be here." Zoro remarked.
BLACK SCREEN
The Unity Force group then visit another place known as Devil's Grief, formerly known as Denver, Colorado, where they encounter what looked like a group of tribal people who are preparing for reconnaissance at night, while they are looking at what appeared to be a tall building, much to the confusion of the Unity Force. They are more shocked, when they also found Aloy with two tribesmen, Sona and Varl, who hailed from a tribe known as Nora.
"War-Chief." Varl said. "We have visitors who might aid in our battle." He added.
"Visitors? What is the meaning of this?" Sona questioned.
"I knew something was amiss, Aloy-san." Maya said. "Why you left the Unity Force Academy with Erend-san?" She asked.
"Those cultists are the ones responsible for the Proving Massacre, and they are hiding at the Ring of Metal." Aloy said.
"So, that's why you left the U.F. Academy." Zoro remarked.
"I still have unfinished business to do here." Aloy replied.
"And who are these people?" Noelle asked.
"This is Sona, the War-Chief of the Nora." Aloy said, before pointing to Varl. "This is Varl, a Nora Brave." He added.
"Greetings." Varl said. "That outfit doesn't look like anything we have seen before in years. Not even one of our tribes wear that kind of clothing." He continued.
"So, you've known the outcast, as well?" Sona asked.
"It's a complicated story, actually, uh... Sona-sama." Maya remarked. "And Varl-san." She added. "But we can explain it later on." She ended.
"Mind if we join in on whatever this mission goes?" Zoro said.

BLACK SCREEN
As deadly as they are...
Cut to Cauldron EPSILON in the Firebreak Facility...
From there, the Unity Force with Akiha Ikekuburo are later seen with Aloy and the members of the Banuk tribe known as Ourea and Aratak, who are in an expedition.
"You said that this 'Daemon' is responsible for the creation of these machines in this Cauldron?" Maya asked.
"It was also responsible for corrupting the Spirit, as well." Ourea said.
"The Spirit?" Akiha asked.
"The Spirit of the Blue Light." Aratak added.
BLACK SCREEN
From there, Aratak, Ourea, and the Unity Force arrive at what looked like the final area of the Cauldron inside the Firebreak Facility.
"This must be the doings of the Daemon." Ourea said.
They are forces not to be trifled with.
"I think not!" Akiha added. "But this 'Daemon' is none other than HEPHAESTUS, as what Aloy-sama said. It's an A.I. that has gone mad. Or in your own case, the demon that has gone mad." She added.
"Human intrusion detected." HEPHAESTUS warned. "Machine creation commencing at a rapid rate." He added, before his voice becomes raspy. "You intruders have meddled my plans one too many."
Then, a giant, ursine machine appears into the scene.
"What the hell is that?" Asta added.
BLACK SCREEN
Cut to a scene in a place known as Maker's End, where Zoro, Maya, and Aloy are seen entering an ancient ruin known as Faro Automated Solutions.
Finding secrets
"Wait, wait. Three hundred and fifty thousand. That's a hundred years ago." Aloy added.
"That's like 974 years later." Maya added. "But even after much time has passed, I'm sure that we might find answers to this 'Elisabet Sobeck' person."
The scene then cuts to the 35th Floor of the building, where Zoro, Maya, and Aloy watch a hologram of two Old Ones conversing: Elisabet Sobeck and Ted Faro.
"Talk about a deal gone wrong." Zoro added.
"Unbelievable. How would this Faro person do such a thing that destroyed this world?" Maya explained.
BLACK SCREEN
Cut to an unknown jungle.
The scene cuts to Zoro, Maya, Asta, and Noelle infiltrating the Eclipse main base with Aloy.
The scene then cuts to Zoro, Maya, and Aloy standing at a derelict Tallneck, before they personally encounter the rogue AI known as HADES.
Even if death is always a possibility
"What is that thing?" Zoro questioned.
"That's HADES. The Buried Shadow, as what Olin said." Aloy replied. "He is being worshipped by the Eclipse, including Helis." She added.
"But that's just an A.I." Maya said.
"A highly dangerous one." Zoro said. "You already saw what the Eclipse have been doing earlier." He explained.
"What is the meaning of this?" HADES questioned angrily. "Entity cannot destroy me. Entity, I am beyond its reach." He uttered mockingly.
The scene then cuts to Zoro, Maya, and Aloy escaping the base.
"DESTROY THE ENTITY AND THE INTRUDERS!" HADES commanded.
The scene then cuts to the base of the waterfall with Zoro, Aloy, and Maya, before they are greeted by Asta, Noelle, Meliodas, and Trafalgar.
"Are you okay there?!" Asta exclaimed.
"Now that the Eclipse Focus Network is destroyed..." Sylens said.
"After you sent us to our near-deaths, that is!" Maya angrily argued.
The secrets must be unearthed.
The scene cuts to an Old Ones facility with Aloy, Zoro, Akiha, and Maya, which is known as Zero Dawn Project Facility.
"You've heard the bad news, and it's all true. The Faro Plague is devouring the biosphere. Life itself will cease to exist. Global extermination. But does that have to be the end? What if we could give life - a future? [...]"
"Project Zero Dawn..." Maya said.
The scene then cuts to a place known as the Citadel in Sunfall, where Aloy, Zoro, Akiha, and Maya see Helis and Anders Benoit in a place known as Sun-Ring.
"Let these vile schemers, who schemed and slithered, be the first to die. Let them be the first of thousands! The Unity Force scum will be purged within our grasp!" Helis declared.
"I'm afraid that your schemes of pestering the Corps are over, Unity Force." Benoit said.
The scene then cuts to the destroyed Sacred Lands.
"No way..." Aloy said.
"We're too late." Zoro remarked.
The scene then cuts to a facility known as ELEUTHIA-9.
"Elisabet, this message serves to inform you of an unforeseen and catastrophic anomaly. Three microseconds ago, the GAIA Prime facility received a data transmission of unknown origin. [...]"

Now, it's the time.

The scene then cuts to the Nora Sacred Lands fighting off against Benoit's forces and the Eclipse and the army of Corrupted Machines.
The scene then cuts to the Bitter Climb fighting off against the last of the Machines guarding the GAIA Prime facility.
The scene then cuts at the Firebreak facility fighting off against Daemonic Machines.
To end this, before all hope is lost.
The scene then cuts below the Spire.
"We have one shot at this, and stop their forces from reaching the Spire." Aloy said.
"You're not going to do this by yourself, Aloy-san." Usagi Tsukino said. "You need us, the Unity Force." She reasoned.
"We're going there anyways, right?" Erend asked.
"Right." Varl said.

The scene then cuts to the GAIA Prime facility, where Aloy, Zoro, Maya, and Akiha later greet Sylens.
"You're born to do this, Aloy." Sylens said.
"I was born for it." Aloy added, before looking at the Unity Force group beside her. "But I have to do this by myself and find the last of the answers regarding Sobeck." She explained.
"Not anymore, Aloy-onee-sama." Akiha understand. "You need us." She replied.
