Horizon Forbidden West Announced With New Trailer

Guerrilla Games announced the sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn and it's titled Horizon Forbidden West! Here's the debut trailer.

[UltraNova]

The most visual striking game ever made BAR NONE!

[darthv72]

it does look breathtaking. And what about that console???? both disc and digital versions.

[ABizzel1]

Game of the show. It was the first game to truly show next-gen to me, just knowing how huge this world will be, the diversity of the world, the wildlife and machines. Here's hoping to being able to ride / fly / swim all machines.

[bouzebbal]

Yes!! Too much that I'm running out of words.. Thank you Sony for making is dream in these tough times

[NecrumOddBoy]

YES! This looks so damn good.

[CaptainHenry916]

This looks better than Unreal Engine 5

[umair_s51]

Another killer app.

[Jin_Sakai]

This is next gen. Amazing! Guerrilla games are on another level.

[GOULDYBOBS]

Could you direct me to the next gen part please?

[bouzebbal]

Gout

No need to watch the video just see how Aloy looks while drawing the bow.. Unreal!!!

[morganfell]

Talk about walking on clouds. GG are just starting to realize their own talent. Absolutely amazing.

[ABizzel1]

@Gouldybobs

If you mean graphically, then those of us with PC games have been saying games won't look drastically better than current-gen if they focus on 4K resolution.

That being said what's next-gen, the scale and graphic fidelity of the game world looks as good if not better than Red Dead on PC, which is one of the most demanding games on PC at max settings, the environments are hugely diverse, the wildlife both machine and biological is hugely diverse which is a challenge for most games when it comes to varying enemy types. The grass is insanely dense and detailed, Ghost of Tsushima has amazing look grass and Horizon FW blew it away. The framerate can also be a huge upgrade as well. I'm assuming this is aiming for Native 4K @ 30fps, but they better have a performance mode that has RS 4K @ 60fps.

[UnSelf]

A+ today Sony. A freaking plus

[Ratchet75]

Even indy games looked amazing on that show.

[StormSnooper]

@Ratchet,
Yes, the one that really surprised me was that game called Kuno? I think it was Kuno... but man when the two brothers introduced it, I was like this will be a small indie, but boy that game’s graphics were intense. Did not expect that. Very interesting art design too.

[-Foxtrot]

Sony have really f******* out done themselves with this show.

[ClayRules2012]

Yes, they truly did, Fox. And that console...love the look of it.

[badz149]

they have outdone EVERYBODY!

[rainslacker]

This game topped off the show for me. Was so impressed it almost brought a tear to my eye. Thought it might be an Uncharted game at first because they had some of those UC instruments in it, but was happier to see Horizon. Thought it was a nice touch the flying dinos had solar panels for wings.

[bouzebbal]

Now take a look at series x.. Honesty, incarnation of boredom and sadness.. Gonna take it a long time to recover from today's show... A really long time

[StormSnooper]

I think most would agree that Sony blew MS ‘s conference out of the water.

[TheScotsman]

A great show with what we wanted. And I agree a console design to die for wow

[NeoGamer232]

I don't know....

GT and Project Athia looked pretty amazing to me!

(But, yes, this looks amazing too - But no release date)

[mandingo]

Omg give it a rest

[CaptainHenry916]

Salty

[UltraNova]

Warning: too much sodium can and will increase your blood pressure.

[RazzerRedux]

LOL

[Koolaidude]

So far

[Minute Man 721]

I still need to play HDZ. Might wait for the PS5 to play them back to back

[StormSnooper]

You still have time. I would say play it now.

[lelo2play]

This game was the best game shown by Sony on today's conference. The rest of the conference was kind of meh.

[RazzerRedux]

"kind of meh"

Wow....coming from you that means they must have looked pretty awesome.

[WGAF]

Dont know, it looks like Anthem. I didn't see any games so far with same graphic fidelity as that U5 demo recently.

[Muzikguy]

I can't wait to play this on the PS5 and with my "new" 4K TV. I may just play the original as well again before it. I didn't have a 4K TV at the time and don't have a Pro either. That game looked amazing too

[Aussieguy]

I must need glasses or was expecting more, because its a new generation and was hoping maybe we were nearing more lifelike graphics by now

[FernDiggidy]

GOW would like to have a word.

Edit. You might be right. I hope it looks like that day one.

[Majin-vegeta]

Ahhh yes!!Game looks good.Ability to swim

[Relientk77]

I'm insanely hyped for underwater exploration!

[Ratchet75]

Thanks to the SSD, underwater won't be her only plane of exploration.
🦅🦅😉

[Sunny_D]

That was a lot of flying animals and machines in the trailer weren’t there?

[solideagle]

OMG was my reaction. HZD was my first platinum game. I wish they would have shown a little bit of gameplay as well but I am pretty sure they will show it in the coming months. is this a launch title?

[medman]

No, not a launch title.

[MADGameR]

That underwater segment was gameplay

[roadkillers]

Guerilla makes the game.

[Relientk77]

Ok well they showed Horizon 2, so I have to buy a PS5 now. Geez, it looks so good and so beautiful.

[Gardenia]

Underwater ruins, flying mounts, robot mammoths, fuck yes!

[Relientk77]

Yes! I loved the giant turtle too

[Critic4l_Strik3]

No love for the warthog??

[Sunny_D]

They showed flying mounts?

[AzubuFrost]

Is nobody going to point out how they ripped off lord of the rings with that elephant scene?

[solideagle]

Imagine GOW 2/6 on PS5 :D

[GaboonViper]

Its so beautiful i'm f**king crying.

[ClayRules2012]

When Guerrilla said “You’re not ready for this” last year about the visuals for HZD2 on PS5 I couldn’t imagine. Well, they weren’t freaking lying... I’ve always said HZD was the closest game to capture “Avatar” James Cameron’s film like visuals. It was truly stunning. And now, this is on A WHOLE NEW LEVEL. TRULY. I’ve never seen such beauty from a game before.

[GaboonViper]

A mammoth Bro, a freaking mammoth machine, OMG.

[deleted]

The hell with Avatar, Mr Cameron! You've been outdone! I already found myself watching less movies this gen bc of games like Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War etc. I prefer to live out great stories and experiences than passively watch. I think games have finally hit film quality in this next gen.

[GOULDYBOBS]

Keep off the spice

[ClayRules2012]

I hear you. I love movies, but gaming experiences are just more amazing experiences “in my opinion”

I’ve mentioned Avatar because of how colorful, gorgeous and unique that film looked/looks. I remember some saying consoles wouldn’t reach those kinda visuals for another 20 years or so. To me HZD delivered something as visually striking as that film (of course not on the same level) but it doesn’t matter. The dense foliage, lighting system, and just world all displayed this others worldy look that just hasn’t been achieved before.

And yeah, game worlds (especially this generation have truly mesmerized and blown me away visually and just with the characters in those worlds themselves. And HZD2 looks to be delivering another unique, engaging and visually stunning experience.

I agree, I think games have hit film quality for this next gen too

[ClayRules2012]

OMGOSH, I know. That freaking mammoth has me scared and excited at the same time. I don’t wanna fight it lol.

[FernDiggidy]

Crying?

[Majin-vegeta]

Footage of Aloy fighting a Snapmaw
https://youtu.be/9XfrKnCzfj...

[I_am_Batman]

Stunning visuals. The new machines look insane. Are we gonna fight these things underwater? Can't wait.

[victorMaje]

Day frickin 1!

[LucidIllusion]

And boom goes the dynamite.

[Kerrian]

Sony is on fire. Nothing stops them. First they throw in great looking games and HZ2. Then the metascore of TLoU2 is 96. Then as if that where not enough we haven't seen Ghost of Tsushima.

I don't know but looks like Sony is possessed by something out of this world. They are hitting hard like no tomorrow. Sony settled the standard and the beginning of the next generation hitting the table with pure violence. I don't know if I'm dreaming or not. But this is too good to be true. And if it is, I'll probably faint.

[VerminSC]

Most impressive thing shown imo, and I wasn’t even a major fan of the first.

[Einhander1971]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NEXT GEN STARTS HERE.

[bloodymeatballz]

Win win win Yes yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes yes Yes yes yes yes yes PS5 OVER EVERYTHING

[waverider]

Without words! Overhyped

[Gameplayer1]

Holy fucking what?????? Oh Lord...this is the most beautiful game I've ever seen....just wow! Wow.

[derek]

When does it come out?

[Fishy Fingers]

Didn't say. Only a handful were even given a release date, of all those shown I think 3 for this year, most 2021, and one 2022. So who knows.

[derek]

Thanks for the info. Hope its soon

[Kumakai]

Nice

[SamTheGamer]

That's what I wanted to see. Now I can die

[medman]

I will live underwater in this game.....

[gijsbrecht]

Just Wow. This is stunning!

[Bruh]

The visuals don't strike me as a huge upgrade from HZD. Kinda annoys me that there wasn't any gameplay shown. In fact for a lot of those games there was literally just trailers

[Fishy Fingers]

I dont think the 1080 30fps stream helped there. Kinda silly.

But yeah, after XB and with no time limit ther amount of gameplay suprised me too.

[Bruh]

Yeah probably, they could be aiming for 4K 60 FPS instead of just a massive upgrade to visuals. But I can the see SSD tech, they showcased how the world would have a ton more depth and physical geometry. I just hope we finally get a Kronosaurus robot dino.

[RazzerRedux]

lol....the video in this very article is 4K.

[medman]

@bruh
The density of the world and the vegetation was impressive. The detail of the machines is also very much improved. This game will have more world to explore, more layers, underwater, in the air riding machines.....and I'm sure vastly improved physics and weather effects. It's an exciting first look at the successor to one of the most technically impressive games of the current gen. I have no doubt Horizon II will be stunning.

[Bruh]

Yeah physical geometry was very impressive. I hope we get to see more, my issue really was that the lighting model doesn't seem like its taken that next-gen leap. I felt Ratchet and Clank was really that one title where I was like yeah this is insane

[boing1]

There was gameplay. Look closely.

[P_Bomb]

Mammoths, Pteranodons, Sylens! So far, so good.

[super_bruno]

YESSS! Been waiting for this game. Looks superb.

[GOULDYBOBS]

Whoah! You can go UNDERWATER my dudes!!! Now that Is NEXT GEN!!

[stuna1]

You're so salty that your mouth is dry lol.

[mrsolidsteel20]

Yeah this murdered everything shown.

[Koolaidude]

Not Spider-Man and sales will prove it. Cont wait for Spider-Man

[Spurg]

It looks really good.
There was no gameplay demo which probably means it not ready for launch.

[RazzerRedux]

Sony should have provided more gameplay with this and in their presentation overall. They didn't say this was game play, but it should have been.

[Obscure_Observer]

I told you.

[RazzerRedux]

@Obscure_Observer

What did you tell me other than it was stupid for people to say "show me gameplay" when Microsoft didn't show gameplay at their gameplay reveal?

[Fraggle1987]

Dear Lord look at those visuals!

[Benficaman]

Sony is set to destroy my wallet. Damm you, you will sucessed

[stuna1]

Hahahahaaaha!

[rainslacker]

You could save your wallet and just have your paychecks directly deposited into Sony's bank account.

[Benficaman]

Hahahahaha.

[Shane Kim]

This and Kena looked absolutly next gen in terms of gfx.

[Elda]

Looks beautiful!!

[IAreBeMrLee]

Horizion was still one of my games of the decade so I'm beyond excited for this!

[Smclaren1985]

How next level does this game look I truly hope that is in game ,all the footage of the original was don’t get me started on how 😎 the console is super hyped 😁😁👍

[Yodasfavoritesoda]

Looks amazing! Seems like a perfect time to finally finish the Frozen Wilds. Hopefully it’s good

[stupidusername]

Can't wait!! But I'm wondering what the release date will be for this and Ratchet and Clank. Hopefully early next year. If they were releasing this year they would have said so.

[XxINFERNUSxX]

Enhanced for PC in a few years most likely lol. PC has the first one coming soon, none of that 30 or 60fps crap either. Don't know if I'll be interested in it, I will see...

[ApocalypseShadow]

Keep waiting elitist.

[4U2NV]

Lmao your here on a horizon 2 news topic barking stating pc has the 1st soon.... sounds like you already are interested in it.
🙄

[boing1]

Most likely in a few years...lol. Sounds about right.

[racer22]

And by guerillas track record of awesome tech I bet this runs at 60 fps locked and maybe even higher. Cant wait!!!!!

[Juiceid]

THANK YOU!!!!

[ElementX]

I'm more excited for this than anything at this point. GOTY

[DragonWarrior19]

Man, I thought the Metal Gear Rex looking thing at the end of the first was terrifying and difficult, I'm going to cry when I have to fight multiple war mammoths. Can't wait!

[Ashunderfire86]

Wow Horizon Zero Dawn 2 take place in San Franciso!!!!! Look at the ruin golden gate bridge on the left hand side in the cornor at the 2:46 Mark.

[Chaos-Dad]

Awesome! oO

[memots]

wow .. ok
I wasn't that interested but watching this trailer !! OMG good work

[DFresh]

Day 1

[Gaming4Life1981]

This and the console was the 2 main things I wanted to see. I guess this is a 2021 game but I still have hope for a launch title lol. The end of the trailer was ripped right from the lotr return of the king which is one of my favorite movies so i enjoyed it. The underwater section is really exciting for me because I love underwater exploration in games.

[Thundercat77]

Firstbgame was a huge hit and a masterpiece.

Many people love this game and I can confidently say is going to be a huge system seller.

[Veneno]

Looks like we'll see some Dragonball in there too.

[tulholdren]

Just awesome from the start Sony Exclusives are going to be on a roll.

[BlaqMagiq1]

It's over! Sony coming with the bangers right out the gate! DAY 1!!!

[AK91]

Well it was inevitable, though I still need to go back and play the DLC.

[RCslayer]

As soon as I heard the voice. I went "f@#K yeah.

[MrSec84]

This looks better than Avatar in 4K visually and the gameplay was ridiculous!!
Looks so polished, no doubt a 2021 game given how good and smoothly it's running.

[GamingSinceForever]

Ok I wasn’t as impressed when watching live but now that these trailers are in HD. Wow!

It almost looks like an oil painting.

[FernDiggidy]

Damn, this shit looks FIRE!!!!!

Can't wait for the GOW 2 reveal. Going to be epic as fuck

[RandomPolishGuy]

This, DS remake, Hitman. Spidey Morales. Don't need more to purchase ps4.
