A new Play and Plant program will allow Horizon Forbidden West players to help restore forests by earning an in-game trophy. Guerrilla Games' upcoming sequel to 2017's Horizon Zero Dawn will take players back to a gorgeously lush post-apocalyptic world inhabited by animalistic machines. Like its predecessor Horizon Forbidden West includes breathtaking environments, with the new hardware only increasing the sequel's immersive beauty.
Horizon Zero Dawn followed protagonist Aloy on a journey across post-apocalyptic America, and Forbidden West will see the heroine travel to a brand-new part of the country. The series' world-ending event wiped out humanity, but nature has grown to reclaim the old world as bestial robots cultivate the planet for a new generation of people. The sequel will bring back the first game's signature gameplay, with players traversing a sprawling open world and hunting machines for their valuable parts. New weapons and abilities will help Aloy on her journey, as enemies both new and old appear to challenge her and her allies. The Horizon Forbidden West trophy list gives a glimpse at the sequel's wide range of content, but one trophy is particular will actually impact our world.
