Aloy is heading south to find POSEIDON in the ruins of Las Vegas. It doesn’t look like POSEIDON is trying to hard to hide, considering there is a tower with water pouring out of it in the middle of the desert. On her quest Aloy runs into three Oseram showmen who are trying to find “Embers” to take back to the claim and put on a great show. Things aren’t going to well for them right now, though. Aloy and the showmen team up to get Aloy down to the old Las Vegas strip where, besides being completely flooded, has a brand new big machine for us to deal with. It’s called the Tideripper, and it doesn’t take much to figure out why.

In this episode:
– The Sea of Sands [Main Quest]
– First Tideripper Encounter
– Learn about Stanely Chen
