Our analysis
Impressive action with emotional depth, particularly in Burning Shores DLC. Strong character writing exploring love and sacrifice in a stunning post-apocalyptic LA.
Our analysis
Horizon Forbidden West is an outstanding open-world adventure with spectacular machine combat, a beautiful world and superb side quests. Its patchy main story, weak melee and tedious looting do little to diminish the overall achievement.
Our analysis
A fantastic sequel with deeper combat, streamlined controls, and rich world-building that delivers an ambitious and emotionally complex story. Reviewer urges everyone to experience it despite minor third-act pacing issues.
Our analysis
Long, well-crafted open-world action game with thrilling combat, diverse weapons, compelling story, and stellar visuals; minor pop-in issues don't detract.
Our analysis
A stunning sequel that improves on the original in every way, with gorgeous environments, fun machine combat, deep armor customization and the Machine Strike minigame, though audiobook-like dialogue, uncompelling tribes and Aloy's constant self-talk hold it back.
Our analysis
Exceptional production but cliche story and generic open-world gameplay.

WatchOur analysis
A worthy sequel that improves on Zero Dawn in nearly every way, with gorgeous visuals, expanded traversal, and deep, exhilarating machine combat. It is held back by exposition-heavy storytelling with thin character development, fiddly weapon and ammo micromanagement, repetitive quest objectives, and a fair number of technical bugs, landing just short of the genre's best.

WatchOur analysis
A stunning sequel that improves upon the original with better combat, engaging story, and excellent technical performance, though bugs and lack of post-game content prevent total completion.

WatchOur analysis
Despite beautiful visuals, Horizon Forbidden West is fundamentally disappointing due to dated combat mechanics, overly linear design despite its open-world presentation, and tedious resource gathering that drags out the experience.

An undoubted masterpiece sequel that significantly improves upon the previous game with enhanced open-world design, expanded combat variety, and excellent content diversity. Highly recommended for fans of the series.
