New Horizon Forbidden West gameplay footage has been shared online today, providing new information on the upcoming open-world game by Guerilla.
The new footage has been shared today by IGN who had the chance to go hands-on with the game for four hours. The preview, which is also available in written form, reveals some interesting new details on combat, scaling mechanics, and more, painting a very positive picture.
Nearly every misgiving I had about Zero Dawn seems to have been thought through, and then some, while everything I loved has only been improved upon. Aloy’s new journey seems more robust and rewarding than I expected, while retaining the wonder and awe that its predecessor delivered on. I still don’t know quite what the Forbidden West itself will hold, but after my hands-on, I’ve never been more excited to find out.
Horizon Forbidden West launches on PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4 on February 18th worldwide.
Join Aloy as she braves the Forbidden West, a deadly frontier that conceals mysterious new threats.
