Horizon Forbidden West (Review): PS5's Breath of the Wild

Описание: Early review code provided by Playstation. This review/analysis of Horizon Forbidden West is spoiler-free, although viewer discretion is advised.

Going into this review and analysis of Horizon Forbidden West I expected nothing from the upcoming open world game, having been so burned out on the genre and Sony's big budget prestige cinematic action titles in equal measure. At some point in the review process, however, something clicked and I had to make and abundant beauty, Horizon Forbidden West ended up rekindling my love of a genre—the most enthralling open world I've played since Breath of the Wild. Let's talk about it in this review/analysis!

Horizon Forbidden West releases on 18th February for PS5 and PS4.
