News Horizon Call of the Mountain Is a Real PSVR2 Spectacle, Aloy Cameo Confirmed
It's got scale
Wow, wow, wow! Frankly, this trailer will not do Horizon Call of the Mountain justice, but the fact that it looks jaw-dropping scaled-down on a flat-screen is testament to what we’re all about to experience with PSVR2. The sheer scale on display here at points is breath-taking – this is comfortably the biggest, most beautiful VR...

Random We Totally Would Have Played Horizon Zero Dawn on PS1
Rough and ready
Ah, the PS1 – also known as the GreyStation, for those of you who read Nintendo Official Magazine in the 90s.

News Horizon Forbidden West's 1.09 Patch Makes Looting So Much Better
Skip the animation
100 per cent completion fixes and performance boosts headlined last week's update for Horizon Forbidden West, which is fairly understandable.

Soapbox It's Okay to Enjoy Elden Ring and Horizon Forbidden West
Why not both?
History has a way of repeating itself, and just like Horizon Zero Dawn in 2017, the discourse surrounding Horizon Forbidden West has been destroyed by the arrival of an alternative open world game.

News Horizon Forbidden West Is Getting Review Bombed on PS5, PS4 for No Reason
0/10, apparently
It wouldn’t be a major video game release without gamers exhibiting embarrassing behaviour.

Putting all the pieces together
While Horizon Zero Dawn was a wonderful debut entry from Guerrilla Games — a studio that was entering all-new territory with an open world action RPG — it did have its flaws. Built up towns were one of them; they looked cool from a distance, but had little to do once you got inside. Horizon Forbidden West goes to...

Modified to augment ranged combat
Well, we all expected it really, didn’t we? The best armour in Horizon Zero Dawn was the Shield Weaver, which practically made Aloy unstoppable in combat.
