Horizon: Forbidden West is an improvement on the already impressive formula established in Zero Dawn. The character acting in this game is some of the best I have ever seen in a video game. The side quests are also much improved and more engaging. While I did enjoy the combat, I found myself wanting more missions that involved interacting with the machines rather than just fighting against them. Overall, Horizon: Forbidden West is a fantastic game that builds upon its predecessor and delivers a truly immersive and engaging experience.
