About The Game
Explore distant lands, fight bigger and more awe-inspiring machines, and encounter astonishing new tribes as you return to the far-future, post-apocalyptic world of Horizon.
The land is dying. Vicious storms and an unstoppable blight ravage the scattered remnants of humanity, while fearsome new machines prowl their borders. Life on Earth is hurtling towards another extinction, and no one knows why.
It's up to Aloy to uncover the secrets behind these threats and restore order and balance to the world. Along the way, she must reunite with old friends, forge alliances with warring new factions and unravel the legacy of the ancient past – all the while trying to stay one step ahead of a seemingly undefeatable new enemy.

Waow Aloy is my new icon of video games. Horizon Forbidden West is a achievement ! Graphics is beautiful, gameplay is very interesting, the story is good !
both zero dawn and forbidden west are awesome A F. have played both and completed in all difficulties and also on NG+. Thunderjaw in ultra hardmode takes like 15-20 mins to kill , great fun. awesome machines, cool characters and a wicked story. i like the fact that most of the HZD characters make an appearance in HFW. Looking forward to burning shores. i hope we do get to fight against a HORUS TITAN machine. totally nuts!!
