    Makes me very mad that Playstation sell this game to 5 years olds promoting this game as a technical and story masterpiece, which is a lie, there are much better game sspecially withing the wrpg genre like AC valhalla, which has better combat mechanica, way more abilities and playstyles and additionally to this it has better graphics.

    This game is a scam.

    Much improved over the first game, and very impressive graphically. Story wasn't very good and combat became repetitive.

    Excellent game, don't believe the review bombers. Graphics are fantastic, story engaging and the gameplay will be familiar to Zero Dawn fans, but improved in almost every respect.
    Kudos to Guerilla for making this a better experience.

    Game is average and it is not a masterpiece, boring dialogues and aloy speak alone for too much time, quite some bugs.

    Decent graphics but there are last gen games which look better.

    Big step up from Zero Dawn. Absolutely gorgeous visuals and smooth gameplay. Get lost in the world and so much to do and look at. This has become the new standard for the new generation games. Keep it up!

    This game is absolutely incredible. I loved the first game and this improves on it in every way. The side quests are more detailed and impactful, the main quests are so satisfying to complete. The character models are so, so, much better than zero dawn and are really intricate and special.

    Mais do mesmo, sem inovação nenhuma, mesmos gráficos do 1,°, bug de vídeo, bug de áudio, bug de gameplay, jogo lançado quebrado, quem sabe em uns 3 meses arrumem os bug, um destrato com o usuário.

    Não há outra nota a não ser o 10 para este jogo, é sem dúvida alguma o melhor jogo até o momento da atual geração, enredo envolvente, gráficos exuberantes, conseguiram melhorar inúmeros aspectos do primeiro jogo. Sem dúvidas um forte candidato a melhor jogo do ano.

    Tudo bugado é impressionante, um hype lá em cima e a personagem atravessa parede, galhos de árvores, Rocha, e por um instante achei q ela se transformava também. Graficamente é OK e não passa disso

Could be a decent game at a 30 dollar price tag instead of 70 but yeah overall i’ve lost faith in sony, fix the bugs make the game have more depth than a puddle fix gameplay and maybe not reuse assets from the game if your going to change other things completely.… Expand

    Horizon has enchanted me again. After a slow start, a graphically beautiful, sophisticated sequel comes, polished in every aspect, and underscored by a great soundtrack on top of that. The sequel was simply a success. Everything that worked before works even slightly better now. [Issue#317]

    Horizon Forbidden West is Guerrilla's best game to date, taking Aloy to new heights with a blockbuster release that meets the high standards set by PlayStation in recent years. While it's totally worth fans jumping in on day one, it's perhaps better to wait a few weeks until all the bugs are ironed out.

    Horizon Forbidden West is exactly what everyone thought it would be: an amazing game. It has an open world with plenty of things to do and places to explore, fights against some really well-developed machines and stunning visuals. The feeling is that the second game of the series improves on what was already great, and it feels rewarding and fun to play. It is another single-player masterpiece from Sony.
