Horizon Forbidden West - Quen Character Concept Art

Quen is the most recent addition to the diverse family of the tribes of Horizon. Most crucial for us here was to design color palette and shape language original enough to distinguish this sea-faring culture from the others, while maintaining core pillars of our character design. Choro Choi has made one of the first sketches where all these requirements came together, and it is from that initial sketch I've made the final Quen Chaser design.
