So far, this game is pretty good. There are way too many games coming this month and i'll certainly be investing time into all of them. Also the graphics are insane on this game.

The first game zero dawn was amazing and forbidden west is even better with better graphics, animations and also being able to swim adds more and a lot more areas to climb.

Super fun, if you liked the original then you'll enjoy this. Got ~100 hours out of it exploring everything and doing every side quest before beating the main story.

This game is incredible. The atory line, game play, action, features and setting options were WELL thought through. The only thing keeping this from 5 stars are the minor bugs and the graphic quality of Alloy is significantly different (for the worst) comparedto her background. It's almost bizzare at times seeing ps4 quality against one of the most vivid backgrounds in a game yet. I get it, it probably keeps her frame rate fast, and necessary for the consoles out now... but it gets weird. I'm hoping the graphic layers and bugs will be uodated over time.
This is VERY nitpicky and the game IS A MUST for every PS5 owner.

The game is very fun and a wonderful sequel to the first Horizon. This version comes with a beautiful steelbook and a mini artbook. Along with a slew of digital extras.

On PS5, this is a great sequel to first Horizon Zero Dawn game. The graphics make this a beautiful game to play. Plot is well done and the voice acting is good.

Great game and steel book

The steel book itself is really nice. Its surface is a sort of metallic matte with certain elements, like Aloy’s focus and the sky, having a shiny foil look to them.
The game as a whole is even better than the first one. The world is a lot more varied than before with larger, more distinct biomes to explore. The ability to go underwater adds a new layer to the exploration too, and everything just feels more fun to explore. The only slight downside is that some of the side quests, like hunting grounds and fighting pits, aren’t as fleshed out and feel more like tutorials than any actual challenge.

Outstanding game. Horizon Zero Dawn was my favorite game from last generation, and Forbidden West adds to it in good ways, while not removing anything noticeable.

Fantastic update to a great game. On a side note, Best Buy’s shipping was abysmal and arrived 6 days after release date despite pre ordering back in September.

All the things that worked for the first game work better in this one. It is a bigger, smoother version of the first game, and that isnt a bad thing,

Very good Sequel, a bit long, but worth it. New Mechanics are fun with gliding, the combat is more satisfying. all in all great game.
