Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds Reviews
Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds does not start a revolution and has a pretty weak storyline but it offers enough new and diverse content that all fans of mechanical dinosaurs wanting to return to this world after defeating Hades should play it without hesitation.

If you had fun with Horizon Zero Dawn, "The Frozen Wilds" DLC will do likewise. The expansion does not introduce many changes, but it offers a big, beautiful snow-covered land.

The Frozen Wilds is a fine example of quality post-release content
Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds offers more of what I loved in the base game. There's an amazing new location, fantastic story and gameplay which continues to be fun. Thanks to the new locales, and expanded colours that feature in the world, the game looks more stunning than ever. If you enjoyed the base game, you will love what is on offer here. The Frozen Wilds is a fantastic victory lap on the way to a well deserved sequel.
Frozen Wilds fits perfectly within the original content from Horizon Zero Dawn. The new weapons make for a better, more motivating experience. On top of this, the story expands upon the mythology that the original HZD built, making it a bigger world with more worthwhile content to live within. It's quite remarkable how well Guerrilla built this game and how perfectly the DLC fits within it.
Overall, "The Frozen Wilds" gives one more taste of the game's amazing combat, world and character animation to players like myself who loved Horizon (whether it was straight away or after coming back to it). It's a pity that Guerrilla has stated this will be the game's only piece DLC as it lays even more hints for a greater story in this world.
The Frozen Wilds feels a bit less unique compared to the base game but if you can ignore that you will find a lot to like and love about Guerrilla Games' latest effort.
Good addition to an already good game, just don't expect any real change ups to what came before.
A gorgeous expansion that emphasises Horizon's strengths - it may feel a little too familiar at times, but the core gameplay is as solid as ever.
If you enjoyed Horizon Zero Dawn and want to revisit this universe again, The Frozen Wilds is a must have DLC that give the player an impressive area to explore as Aloy. Given that most players should be able to finish this game in around 10-12 hours, exploration is definitely the key to increasing the longevity of this DLC and once you have finished the main mission, you're free to continue exploring. Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds succeeds at giving the fan a well-thought out DLC from start to finish.
Horizon Zero Dawn's first and final expansion sees our beloved Aloy heading into an unforgiving new land to fight a rising menace
While the new content in The Frozen Wilds is on par with the rest of Horizon Zero Dawn, it's hardly a must-play expansion. The story tells us little we didn't already know, and the new weapons and quests feel like more of the same.
If Horizon: Zero Dawn hooked you with its concept and its wonderful approach to an open-world Action RPG, then The Frozen Wilds will sink those hooks even deeper.
Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds is a very good DLC that tells a new story and broades the scope of the main one. With many missions to accomplish and a brand new location in the frozen lands of the Great North, it is a must buy extra content.

The Frozen Wilds is a great expansion for one of the best games of 2017. The added content is quite significant and the main missions tell an interesting story, too. The addition of new machines, skills, equipment, weapons and collectibles make everything even better.

Guerilla Games managed to impress with Horizon Zero Dawn, and now studio did it again with The Frozen Wilds expansion. You'll travel to beautiful new region, fight new machines and unravel another mystery. If you liked the original game, then you'll definitely like this DLC, too.

It may seem like I'm being extremely harsh on The Frozen Wilds, but it needed to offer something new. Guerrilla Games has made an excellent world with some very interesting lore behind it, and I am definitely keen for a sequel, but at the end of the day, unless you are a huge fan, and really want to know more about the Banuk tribe, there's no real point to this DLC.
All in all, Horizon: Zero Dawn - The Frozen Wilds is a straightforward and respectable expansion. It adds to everything that worked well in Horizon: Zero Dawn and does so with confidence. The Frozen Wilds features some of the most fun content in the game, but it's also a very orthodox addition that doesn't make many changes to the core of the game. It's great if you want more Horizon content, but if you were burned out or hoping for a game-changing expansion, this isn't it. Fans who are chomping at the bit for more Horizon action will enjoy The Frozen Wilds.
Even though it doesn't shake things too much, The Frozen Wilds is a worthy expansion that is fun exploring. The DLC adds a new story, several side-quests and lots of challenges that will entertain veterans and newcomers alike.

The Frozen Wilds is a great expansion to Horizon Zero Dawn that feature a new area, a new storyline and new equipment for Aloy that add to the main game up to 20 more hours of gameplay and amazing places to discover. The expansion comes at a fair price that allows anybody who loved the original game to adventure once again in the fascinating sci-fi world made by Guerrilla. You cannot miss this.
