Horizon Forbidden West has been out for a few weeks now, and some players have noticed that a moment from the game’s pre-launch trailers was ultimately missing from the finished product. In Horizon Forbidden West, former outcast Aloy is tasked with traveling the dangerous landscape of the titular Forbidden West to reconstruct Horizon’s terraforming AI known as GAIA and save the world from a dangerous plague known as the Blight. Along the way, she meets up with old friends, makes new enemies, and masters new tools like Horizon Forbidden West’s hard-light glider and grappling hook-like Pullcaster.
Horizon Forbidden West adds many new features to the open-world, robot-hunting gameplay that made the original Horizon: Zero Dawn a surprise hit on the PlayStation 4 back in 2017. Aside from the updated graphics and enhanced emersion provided by the PS5 DualSense controller’s haptic feedback, Aloy can now swim underwater and ride flying machines like Horizon Forbidden West’s new Sunwing. Some of these new gameplay features were showcased in a visually stunning Horizon Forbidden West trailer during last May’s PlayStation State Of Play livestream event. During this brief snippet of story and gameplay footage, Aloy has to help her recurring ally Erend survive an encounter with a hulking Tremortusk.
