AND THE WAIT HAS BEEN WORTH IT! This was a game that marked me for its narrative, its beautiful artwork and its message. With Forbidden West all this things has been enhanced and I am completely blown away. I am really shocked by the detail of the characters from the smallest things to the most notorious. The story is a masterpiece of video game sci-fi that makes me fall in love. And I'm a super-fan of this genre who has explored countless classics. Possibly many connoisseurs of science and technology things understand it when they go deep into its lore and world which is perfectly based. If the story seems boring to some it is simply because they do not pay the necessary attention or they are people who complex things are not for them. These days I have become completely addicted to the game until I completed it 100%. Coffee is cheap and an incredible adventure calls!… Expand

    The game is really great! What we saw at the girst gameplay and at the first trailer had a great upgrade in the final game. The accessibility added a lot of great thing. The combat had a great upgrade from the first game, and the story like always has a great impact.

    Gran trabajo por parte de guerrilla games, esta nueva entrega superó a su predecesor en todo y añadió cosas muy interesantes y sobretodo gráficamente se ve increíble, para mí es un candidato al goty

    Buggy as hell. This game is not even finished, 80$ for this trash? I feel I got ripped. Fog everywhere, popping, secondary characters not well polished and there's a long etcetera of things that are broken. Not recommended,

    great new additions to the game, amazing enemy design, an improvement in every way from Horizon Zero Dawn. The world and settlement feel much more alive and people express much more emotion. Even thing that were already great in HZD like tall neck and old world ruins are much more engaging and complex now. The world

    +visually amazing
    +world building
    +insane loadtimes
    +exploration
    +dynamic hud
    -small graphical bugs like pop ups or flickering
    -combat not really improved compared to 1
    -having to reunlock abilities you already had in the first game, making it feel more of the same.
    -30fps in 4k mode is a hard price to pay for the beautiful graphics in this game.

    The art in this Game is remarkable, from graphics, to sound, to acting, history and gameplay, it's the perfect game for me, and the collector's edition is awesome despite not including the disc, it was worth every Penny.

    This is an awesome game with a great story!

    It didn't quite have the surprise that I got from the first, but that's expected. That's the only reason I'm giving a 9 instead of a 10.

    A worthy sequel to one of the best adventures I've played in recent years. From the beginning is shocking the incredible graphic leap from its first installment.

The photo mode is absolutely brutal. The plot keeps the same quality that makes Horizon one of my favorites videogames, from the very beginning it picks up a lot of very important themes that many people missed or no longer remembered. Fighting against the machines is sublime, the improvements that have been made to the combat system are incredible. It's nice to meet Aloy again and join us in his fight in the search of the truth to save the world. The champion of humanity is back… Expand

    Firstly Ignore those Bombing Retards they didn’t even play the Game so that’s clearly a fanbase war !

    Let’s talk about my experience,I’ve played zero dawn back 2018 and liked it but not much! cause a lot of elements were weak ex: melee combat and Swimming ,also climbing even characters facial weren’t proper ! But Forbidden west oh gosh ! Has fixed all of the issues and made it perfect!    Firstly Ignore those Bombing Retards they didn’t even play the Game so that’s clearly a fanbase war !

    Hence the melee combat was expecting it to have more combos n teks but either satisfy diving n (Flying)
    Holy Moly !

    Un juego increíble, un apartado técnico de un nivel acorde a los tiempos en que vivimos, sonido espectacular. La banda sonora incluso mejor que la de su predecesor. La verdad esperaba con ansias la secuela de esta increíble historia, para los amantes del primero, no se van a defraudar.

    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.
