Horizon Zero Dawn

The game’s concept is a breath of fresh air. A world set in a post-apocalyptic Earth where machines rule and surviving humans live in primitive tribes dealing with the aftermath. It sets itself apart from other games with similar themes. It’s gorgeous and challenging with a great gripping plot. The landscape is beautiful, detailed and enormous and filled with mecha-beasts resembling typical animals and towering prehistoric behemoths that are all the more intriguing.

It’s such an amazing game with an immersive gameplay, stunning graphics and detailed character development. It feels like every aspect of this game was well thought out. Guerrilla Games clearly poured their love and care into developing this title. This is one of the few games I have gone through all of the main dialogue and cutscenes without skipping because it was so engaging.

I’m so glad I finally got to play this game even though it’s a bit late. The timing couldn’t have been better because I managed to get myself a PS5, so I got to play it in its full 4K 60fps glory and Forbidden West has just been released! I can’t wait to immerse myself once again in its beautiful world.
