    RPG IS MY STYLE of gaming AND I HAVE TO SAY THEY HAVE DONE SOMETHING RIGHT. Graphically best I've seen for the PS5 hopefully they continue to make games like this. Story is really good but the side missions I'm in love with 10 hours and still haven't finishd yet but already I'm going to give it a 10/10 .

    The game is exactly how it was expected to be. Matches up to the expectations. If you have come here to read user reviews and are going to decide whether to play or not, depending on what you read here - I will strongly suggest that you play the game yourself. I expect the user ratings to only go up from here since most of the folks who purchased the game

Sometimes you can’t even tell if your doing a main campaign or side missions. They’ve put so much detail into the side missions with the character animations and story that you’ll wanna do the side missions just as much as the main campaign. People think that this is just an last gen upgrade on ps5 but I tell you it’s not. The ps4 version had to use video cutscenes of the ps5 versions ingame graphics because it couldn’t handle it. Please if you have a ps5 or a ps4. Stop what you are doing and grab this now. This is probably one of the best games ever made and most likely contender for GOTY. Ps. There’s so many 0s being put on this game from fanboys and haters. Please do not listen to them. They are purposely review bombing this great title that gurrilla games worked so hard on and you can see it as you play it. This is how you make a sequel to one of the biggest titles on Sony’s ps5 Expand

    One of my favorite games. The new graphics and story continue to be engaging, even though it hasn't got that "brand new adventure" element. I don't understand why the ratings are being brigaded in bad faith, but it might be the usual misogynistic boys feeling insecure about strong female roles. Psshhh. Go away pathetic babies

The graphics are absolutely phenomenal, even on performance mode i constantly find myself stopping and admiring the view in awe, often going into photo mode which i rarely do. I do find myself getting a few bugs here and there however, whether it’s the parkour not working correctly and thus falling off high areas to my death or silly more comedic glitches. Despite a handful of glitches in my play through so far, I think Horizon Forbidden West is nothing short of inspiring and should be a benchmark for open world games. Expand

    20 hours in and loving every second, the world is bigger better and more stuff than ever, every aspect of the game from skill trees, combat and weapons has been improved, the story is great so far lots of interesting twit and turns and can't wait to see where it leads.

    only negatives are the climbing and swimming controls seem clunky and could do with a few tweaks to iron them out, also

    I'm not sure why this game is getting bombed. Kinda confusing. It's not a 10, but this is a marked improvement on an already great game/concept. If you even remotely liked the 1st one, you'll fall in love with this one, especially on PS5.

    I would give Horizon Forbidden West a 9 as it improves on the old game in many ways some of which are, improvements to melee combat, better facial capture, more to explore and more memorable characters along with an amazing story. Although I think the game is great I think this could be built on more in a possible sequel (not the vr game).

    Absolutely amazing game. Would give a 10 but there is some really minor animation glitches that you shouldn’t expect from day 1 of a AAA game. But I trust the studio that these will be patched.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Prós- Jogo fantástico, não há nenhum jogo hoje em dia que bata de frente com os gráficos do mundo aberto do jogo. A historia se mostra muito boa e envolvente, te prende e você sempre fica duvida se vai continuar ou explorar algo novo que acabou de descobri no seu vasto mundo. Existem tantos tipos de atividades para se fazer, desde explorar caldeirões, ruinas antigas, campos de caça, arena de maquinas, campos rebeldes, jogo de tabuleiro, entre outra.

    Contras - O jogo apresenta alguns bugs e glitchs visuais que como a perna da Aloy tremer ao ficar parada e agachada em cima daquelas vigas de estreitas, as pernas delas entram dentro das superfícies rochosas ao caminhar ou pular sobre elas, o salto de um lugar distante para outro é muito fake não apresentando aquela fluidez como visto em Uncharted 4, ao pular em uma escada fixa o corpo dela se balança e atravessa a estrutura da escada.

    Minha nota pelo game é 9,5 devido a possuir bugs visuais, mas que não comprometem sua gameplay. E um jogo simplesmente incrível que vale os 299 reais, quem estava na duvida em comprar o jogo não vai se arrepender.

    My rating is based off the PS5 version. In summary, the world is incredibly dense. The combat has been slightly improved to make it a bit more interesting. The climbing is vastly improved which is much welcome, doesn’t feel as cumbersome. The story has improved to become more interesting from the beginning and not mid way like the prior.

Incredible graphics, however my only reason for not giving it a 10 is within the graphics and modes. The resolution is fantastic but the 30fps is a bit hard to play on since let’s face it it’s not 60, but if that doesn’t but you then it’s the best mode. The performance mode has too much anti aliasing issues ex. the trees and foliage have a shimmer due to the checkboard rendering. Normally I like to play 60 on every title, but it’s too distracting for me. Therefore the 30 is stunning in looks, again, it’s not 60 so it has a down side for me. Overall worth the full price for an amazing experience similar to when I played the last of us or uncharted for the first time. Expand

    A must buy.

    This game has blown me away. The visuals, the story and the improved game elements from the first game are all stellar. Hits on every level. Don’t listen to review bombers who are trying to tank the game because Ally isn’t “hot enough” for them. Insert eyeroll.

    Updated in every way. Gameplay is improved, story is more of what we want plus new twists, and graphics are incredible. Still though, you can just have fun roaming the wilds and killing Mecha monsters. What more could you want?

    A Tour de Force of a sequel with stunning graphics and a great story, only slightly let down by the 1800p checker board solution for performance mode (60fps).

    Hence I spent my time playing in native 4k resolution for a sharper cleaner image.

    Interesting story. Rewarding side quests. A vast open world with plenty to do.

    An amazing game, well worth the 5 year wait! The graphics are amazing, the gameplay is smooth and more intuitive than the last game, and the story is great!

    Short and sweet: the first installment in this series, Horizon Zero Dawn, was one of my favorite games of all time and I genuinely had zero complaints about it.

    Somehow, the sequel, Horizon Forbidden West, finds a way to improve upon every single element of the first game. The visuals are incredible, the plot (thus far) is great, and the game play is some of the best I've experienced (this game is one of my favorites when it comes to archery).

    To sum it up, it's another amazing entry in the Horizon series and I'm looking forward to the rest of my play through and many more sequels to come!!!

    По сравнению с первой частью улучшения заметны как в боевой системе так и игры в целом. Покупкой остался доволен. Советую всем!

    A upgrade to Horizon Zero Dawn in every way imaginable. If you didn’t like that game then you probably won’t love this one but if you even thought the first was just ok this would should really impress you. Best graphics so far on the PS5 and the Dualsense integration is perfect.

    First and foremost - meta critic is dead. If you can’t stop this bullsh*t of console wars and don’t moderate the copycat comments - you shouldn’t be in the business of public opinion in 2021 in the first place. The game is great A class storytelling experience. I was somehow worried about all the inflight change of pace stuff, but so far so good. It really is the best title of 2022.

    This game has run flawless on my PS5. It's strange to me so many are rating this game a 0 but telling most of them write "Sony fails again" or "try again Sony". I'm not a fan on how Rotten Tomato does their verification process when it comes to movies but I think linking your Sony Sign-in should be a must for gamers.

    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.
