Horizon Forbidden West is a new video game and the sequel to the 2017 hit game Horizon Zero Dawn.
The game is set in a post-apocalyptic world where machines have taken over the planet, where the player takes on the role of Aloy, a young woman who sets out to explore the world and discover the machines’ secrets.
Forbidden West is an action role-playing game that will build on the mechanics of its predecessor. The game features a new open world to explore and new machines to battle.
One of the thrilling features of the games is character customization. It does not only revolve around choosing your character’s outfits but the skills and weapons are also entirely reliant on you.
Outfits
In this game, you can customize your character through Outfits. Talking with Stitchers throughout the game’s many towns is the best way to find outfits. These merchants sell most of the game’s Outfits, each with its strengths, weaknesses, and perks that enhance Aloy’s abilities. Some Outfits can be obtained in the open world, while others are awarded for completing specified Quests.
Skills, Upgrades, and Weapons
Aloy’s skills are techniques and upgrades that make her stronger in many categories. Aloy will become a better combatant, more resilient in battle, and better at operating machines by unlocking skills throughout the six skill trees.
Because Skills are linked, you must first invest in previous ones to acquire later or more powerful Skills.
Skill Points are required to access Skills. Skill Points are obtained through completing Quests, participating in side activities, and discovering collectibles.
Aloy’s only option for melee combat is the spear, and this weapon can be used to deliver powerful strikes against enemies by swinging it in wide slashes. Besides the spear, you can also choose from many more weapons with different features.
Loot
Horizon Forbidden West is filled with resources, and you’ll need them all. Every resource you uncover will be helpful in some way, whether it be for creating effective traps and potions or buying new equipment from vendors.
You should not limit yourself to gathering items found in nature too. The open world is filled with hundreds of chests, all of which should be looted for their contents.
Collectibles and Quests
There are many collectibles in the open world of Horizon Forbidden West, and the game’s interface allows tracking. To view any collectibles you’ve already obtained, pick Collectables from the Notebook menu.
Players can do different quests in the game, except for the main quests. These quests can help you earn money and even get items and upgrades.
Aloy’s journey through the perilous Forbidden West is the focus of the main quests in Horizon Forbidden West.
On the map of Horizon Forbidden West, side quests are denoted by green exclamation marks and typically take the form of multi-tiered tasks with extensive narrative exposition.
In Horizon Forbidden West, errands are shorter, more straightforward missions with a single goal, like retrieving a particular item or taking out a specific machine.
Trophies/Achievements
The platinum trophies in Horizon Forbidden West are easy to unlock. This is because, in contrast to many of its high-budget competitors, players will only need to finish some of the side quests and collectible sets to do so.
Conclusion
You can do many things in this open-world game, and it is entirely up to you how you decide to play it. Because the game is so vast, many players visit gaming websites, or view guides, and videos to understand the capabilities of the game and to make sure nothing is missed when playing,
