Through intricate world-building and a tactical combat mechanic that keeps you on high alert, Horizon Forbidden West proves to be an absolute blast. Underneath the shell of its dated AAA game design lies a strong narrative that functions well to expand on...
Looks and runs great on PS5, Score is splendid, Machines intricately designed, ‘Machine strike' is fun, New navigational tools, Valor Surge is helpful, Eases you into the game
World feels artificial and manufactured, Poorly-designed padding, Pushes you to grind, Story undercut thematically, Thorny cultural appropriation with clothing, Not all stealth hits are one-hit KO, Deceitful PS5 pricing, given free upgrade
Horizon Forbidden West is utterly gorgeous and builds on the original's intense combat, but a lack of ambition and a flat narrative hold it back as a sequel. It provides more of the first game but bigger, with a few new inclusions struggling against the t...
Another great performance from Ashly Burch, Visually arresting art direction, Plenty to see and do
The script is lacklustre, Very similar to the previous game
Horizon Forbidden West is the PS5 and PS4 game for anyone who loved Horizon Zero Dawn. On PS5 it's a visual spectacle, and I'm still wowed that Sony has managed to get this running on a PS4. But even though it sands down its predecessor's rough edges, I'm...
Abstract: For a big-budget blockbuster game, Horizon Forbidden West is extremely weird. It is a detailed science-fiction story about a red-haired outcast warrior, the tribes that inhabit a post-apocalyptic Earth a thousand years in the future, and a bunch of robot...

This Playstation blockbuster feels like an homage to all the best video games of the modern era.It's got the puzzle based action-adventure of Uncharted, the post-apocalyptic visuals of The Last Of Us, the bow and arrow gameplay of Tomb Raider and a sprawl...
Stunningly beautiful game,Enormous open-world with masses to see and do,Great ranged and melee combat,Involving and complex plot,Aloy is one of the best gaming characters around
Some side missions and tasks can be repetitive,So too can machine hunting for resources
For all Forbidden West's undoubted enhancements and improvements, especially on PS5, it is still effectively the same game as Zero Dawn. And that is to its benefit.The action-adventure gameplay continues to be intuitive and a joy, with combat, climbing, s...

Horizon Forbidden West was an excellent game on the PS5 with a unique perspective on a post-apocalyptic world, well-written characters and an engaging sci-fi story. The cliffhanger ending will leave you on the edge of your seat for the third game, but I'm...

A perfectly-sized dose of Horizon action that hits the spot, Final battle shows incredible scale and scope, Interesting new ally and villain make the story resonant, The post-apocalyptic Los Angeles is eerily beautiful and uniquely visualized, One final,
Some returning mechanics feel obligatory, and the new ones aren't used much, Only a few new machines, one of which is very similar to an existing one
