Horizon Zero Dawn is excellent, I can't emphasise that enough. This is a game that has made open worlds feel interesting again, in the way that The Witcher 3 managed to. This is something that has gone against the grain of games just aiming for a marketing spiel of "We have 100 hours' worth of...

Incredibly well realized open world with a host of meaningful content; Aloy is one of the best characters in gaming with an excellent story; outstanding personality and perfect growth; One of the best looking games to date; showing exactly what the PS4 can handle

Some side characters are just sat in the uncanny valley and could have done with a little extra work

If Horizon: Zero Dawn hooked you with its concept and its wonderful approach to an open-world Action RPG, then The Frozen Wilds will sink those hooks even deeper.

I'm going to write this review in a similar layout that is used in G.I magazines. The Good: Horizon zero dawn is an amazing game, with massively open world free roam with a good fast travel system, beautiful environment, amazing story, and very containable controls.

Aloy's venture to the treacherous northern region called The Cut deals with the Banuk, a highly spiritual tribe whose rituals and beliefs gives me Native American vibes. There's a great disturbance in Thunder's Drum, the Frozen Wilds ' tallest mountain, and Aloy must build her reputation with the...

Interesting new story; New enemies are challenging and fun; More Horizon

For the first 20% of Horizon: Zero Dawn the game felt to me like a Far Cry game. Not Far Cry Primal, because Horizon didn't omit dinosaurs in some ludicrous effort to pander to the concept of realism.

During the first 5 or so hours of Horizon Zero Dawn , I was drawn in but not necessarily captivated. The game felt solid as an iron forged spear, but the magic wasn't there that would cement this title into the upper echelon of games I hold dear. However, time has a habit of proving people wrong.

Incredible storyline and narrative | Huge open world | Jaw-dropping visuals and art design | Strong protagonist and supporting cast | Great voice work | Combat is frantic; varied and engaging | Environmental storytelling is fantastic

UI can be overbearing | Open-world has a lot of "traditional" activities that are sometimes a bore | Soundtrack is a bit lacking in certain places

Horizon Zero Dawn takes place on Earth millions of years in the future where, as you guessed it, some or other cataclysmic event has wiped out most of humanity. Out of the ashes, new civilisations and tribes sprung up, each with their own unique culture.

Horizon Zero Dawn review – an epic adventure A few blockbuster debuts throughout gaming history have had a surreal, uncanny power to them. You know it when you feel it: a certain magnetism pulling you in, that can't-stop-thinking-about-it quality.

Horizon Zero Dawn is epic on almost every level that is not only well crafted in terms of mechanics but beautifully designed.

Sony Interactive Entertainment has released Horizon Zero Dawn for the PS4.
