Horizon Zero Dawn: The Frozen Wilds Reviews
The Frozen Wilds isn’t a must play expansion, but it’s a damn good one. It challenges skills you thought you’d already mastered and there’s more Aloy. That’s enough to get a recommendation from me.
The Frozen Wilds is a fine example of quality post-release content
The Frozen Wilds expands the main game experience, with new machines, new abilities for Aloy and a complete new environment, but it neither complete the main story nor add new gameplay mechanics.

A great DLC that has everything that made Horizon Zero Dawn special, and goes even further.

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 makes no changes to the core gameplay, following the “don't fix what isn't broken” philosophy.
Many people's game of the year will likely be a third person action adventure boasting strong RPG leanings, a player character for the ages and a wealth of gameplay innovations, which also served as the perfect showcase for the new console technology it launched upon.
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.
In what is easily one of the best expansions of the year, Guerrilla Games gave us an interesting new story arc, some great new characters, and most importantly a reason to revisit a game that was probably shelved months ago for most gamers because there is literally too much good stuff this year.
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.

Everything that made Horizon Zero Dawn the outstanding work that it is undeniably carries over to 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.

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.
The Frozen Wild is a great DLC that takes the core game, makes some new additions, and gives player a reason to return to the world in great form.
A generous expansion that through its stunning visuals and inspired creature design showcases the best features of the original, even if it doesn't fix many of its flaws.
The Frozen Wilds is more of Horizon Zero Dawn, and that is in no way a bad thing. The expansion offers some closure on certain story threads whilst telling a self-contained tale that's perfect for this ruined world you find yourself in. There's little in terms of mechanical upgrades to the game, but Horizon never needed that in the first place.
The Frozen Wilds is a splendid ending of the spectacular Horizon Zero Dawn. Although the DLC doesn't offer any groundbreaking new mechanics and merely enriches the already rich base game, you shouldn't miss it. Spending more hours of quality entertainment with Aloy is worth it.

Aloy returns once more, this time to a place called The Cut, to find about very frightening fact. It is said that there is a completely new type of machine that kills everything with easy snap of the fingers. The only one who can stop this is Aloy and it won't be easy at all. The sophisticated action-semi-RPG is receiving its expected expansion, which is very good, polished, hard and fun!

The Frozen Wilds expands the Horizon Zero Dawn's gameplay driven philosophy to a brand new area, packed with tons of action and a new questline. The DLC offers a solid 10 hours more of the same experience, while Guerrilla Game's open world still shines after nine months in terms of breathtaking visuals and compelling gameplay.
