Horizon Zero Dawn Reviews
Horizon: Zero Dawn is a successful "first time" for Guerrilla in the open world genre. The game isn't perfect, but it's gorgeous to see and explore (best open world graphics ever) and offers engaging fights against fascinating machines.

<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/L5V0BTRtLRc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Horizon Zero Dawn is a brilliant, beautiful and bold action-adventure. With this expansive and ambitious game, Guerrilla finally have a masterpiece to their name, and, in Aloy, a PlayStation legend in the making.
Horizon Zero Dawn is an outstanding game and the best looking PS4 game to date. Recommended to everyone who has a PS4.
Horizon Zero Dawn isn't without its issues, but it's a thoroughly enjoyable game that belongs in every PS4 owner's library.
Horizon doesn't reinvent open-world gaming, but it delivers consistent fun, challenge, and intrigue from start to finish
The quality of the worldbuilding, storytelling and gameplay combine to create a cocktail of heady brilliance; Horizon Zero Dawn is the gold standard for how open world games should be made.
Horizon: Zero Dawn starts as Aloy's personal story and then turns into a bigger, wider experience. Thanks to its fantastic and stuffed open world, its one of the best games of 2017 already.

Horizon: Zero dawn was an absolute joy to play through and I really hope Guerrilla Games decides to make this their core IP. I want to spend more time in this world even after obtaining the platinum trophy. The core gameplay loop is incredibly addictive. Hopefully a story expansion comes soon just so I can dive back into this world.
Horizon: Zero Dawn is a game that in no event it is impossible to miss, a low bow to the team of developer for what could. Could make life so thrilling adventure. To convey the atmosphere of the game, which envelops and you are forced to return to such a stunning world, a world in which both people and robotic creatures. A world where Eloy lives.

Putting a few very minor (and no doubt subjective) niggles aside – I’d argue that Horizon is an unreserved triumph, and a watershed moment for this generation of consoles in terms of maturing the medium. As Nathan Drake settles into a potentially permanent retirement, Sony has done well to pass on the baton. Whether or not we see Aloy again (and I have a strong suspicion that we will…) – Horizon is, thankfully, here to stay.
We strongly recommend Horizon Zero Dawn to all of our readers. PlayStation4 may be content with this title, which greatly affects the number of previews that it continues to collect with great care and dedication.

There was a point while playing through Horizon: Zero Dawn where I questioned how much longer I needed to be at social events because, you know, time in Aloy’s shoes. Or, rather, I skipped out on events entirely so I can play the game. Other times, it was that “well, I could do just one more quest…” feeling. Early on, that’s how I knew this game was worth it. It sucks you in for all the right reasons but won’t overly dominate your life like some other games can (I didn’t cancel that many plans, thank you).
Despite the lack of originality in the genre, Horizon Zero Dawn is a textbook example of a game perfectly put together to give the audience an emotional and unforgettable experience. The freshness and the beautifully crafted world is what we have been waiting to see this year and it has been delivered on a golden platter. Aloy just gave Lara Croft a run for her money. She is the ultimate badass.
A shining example of how to debut a new IP, Horizon: Zero Dawn comes out swinging and doesn’t let you go until the credits roll. Deep, customizable combat perfectly complements the engaging story.
As a final thought, Horizon: Zero Dawn is a great game, one of those weird titles that survives its tremendous hype without hurting the final experience. The risk taken by Sony in asking Guerrilla to develop a AAA game that wasn’t in their comfort zone was a right decision. The way the title is narrated, touching deep and sensible themes, the implementation of playable elements and the focus on making the player want to explore a vast world, show that the six years in the making weren’t in vain. This could be another big new IP for Playstation, as it was Uncharted and The Last of Us in their last gen hardware.

Polished, fun and intriguing! Horizon is in many ways like The Witcher 3’s younger, less complicated sibling. Not as deep, but interesting and fun to hang out with.
A magnificent technical achievement, Horizon Zero Dawn mixes up the open world style in all the right ways, with an intriguing premise that kept me entertained, and which dug its hooks into me the deeper I got into it. A stunning game that deserves your attention. Plus, it has robot dinosaurs.
Horizon Zero Dawn is a kind of game that you admire. This game was a big risk by Guerrilla Games which paid off . Guerrilla Games showed us that it is important to take risks and focus on a brand new IP and create a game which everyone falls in love with.

Horizon: Zero Dawn not only gathers all the great elements of Action-RPG genre, but also introduces some neat and new ideas; and most importantly, executes all those new ideas brilliantly. A great setting, exciting new character, engaging combat system, a large and wonderful world full of quests; Horizon: Zero Dawn is the complete package.
