Earth is ours no more. In an era where Machines roam the land and mankind is no longer the dominant species, a young hunter named Aloy embarks on a journey to discover her destiny. In a lush, post-apocalyptic world where nature has reclaimed the ruins of a forgotten civilization, pockets of humanity live on in primitive hunter-gatherer tribes. Their dominion over the new wilderness has been usurped by the Machines – fearsome mechanical creatures of unknown origin.

Explore a vibrant landscape rich with the beauty of nature. Travel through stunningly detailed forests, imposing mountains and the atmospheric ruins of a bygone civilization, all brought together in a world that is alive with changing weather systems and a full day/night cycle.

Horizon 3 Needs to Live Up to Forbidden West in One Key Area
Horizon Forbidden West

Horizon: Forbidden West managed to enhance the machine designs from the first game, Horizon: Zero Dawn, by introducing new and more challenging enemies. The existential threat posed by these machines is at the heart of Horizon's story and combat, making it difficult for Guerrilla Games to top their previous efforts. The art design of Forbidden West's machines set a high bar, and the third game will need to bring something truly innovative to meet or exceed those standards.
