Customer Ratings & Reviews

I think Horizon Forbidden West is a great game! I have not finished the story just yet. I am enjoying all the story moments I've been encountering. Whether it is a side mission or main story. The game play feels very smooth and fun. I love hunting random machines. There are a lot of activities to do in the game to keep you busy as you play and the world feels very alive. The skill tree is very expansive compared to the original game. Definitely if your someone who enjoys the story driven open world type of games then grab this game!

This is an absolute 10/10 for me. Music, combat, exploration, story, characters, side missions and world are all exceptionally created and meticulously designed to keep you wanting to adventure into every nook and cranny of this world. One of the very best PS5 games you can buy.

I have played this game and love it. There is an amazing story line and the graphics are some of the best I’ve ever seen in a game. The gameplay is easy to pick up and master with a little practice. I have had such a fun time playing this game. It is the second game of the series and does not disappoint.

It's a fantastic game! More important, it includes all DLC on disc, none of that code filth. This has 2 discs, with all the install data, in an age where EA and Ubisoft has you buying physical games with no install data on disc, this is crucial to a collector's collection. I urge anyone who cares about owning their games, to stand up and say no to games that don't give you all your data on disc!

Long Love Physical Media! Great sequel , loved original Zero Dawn

One of the best games I’ve ever played in my entire life, been playing nonstop since I purchased it. No problems whatsoever especially since I bought it brand new.

This is one of the most impressive current generation titles that'll show you what the PS5's capable of. While I preferred Zero Dawn's story more, this is still a game worth playing.

Fun game for someone who likes a good open world single player experience! And the visuals are gorgeous!

This game is so fun so far!! The story is a little slow to get good, but then it gets sooooo good. The voice acting is killer, and the characters themselves are really compelling and understandable. The skill tree having different types of play style was nice, and the weapon stamina stuff was really cool.

I got this game for my father and he is really enjoying it, I recommend this game if you enjoying playing open world games like Zelda

I really love this franchise, the graphics are amazing, love the combat and the upgrades you can do. Just so much to do

Visuals and storytelling are just as amazing as they were in the first game. The game case did come with some damage, but it was very minimal.

As my title suggests, I'd pre-ordered the Day One Edition back when it came out (which I'll now trade or something), to get this Complete Edition. As soon as I found out the Burning Shores expansion is physically on the disc & not simply a code inside the case, I bought it. Like that. *snaps fingers* I recommend. Especially to collectors of physical media.
