Although it has been overshadowed by Elden Ring’s immense success, Horizon Forbidden West is undoubtedly one of this year’s best games. In addition to being a good sequel for the first game, it is also possible to say that it has managed to take the series one step further. There are already early indications that the production team won’t be staying with this step.
In fact, the fact that Horizon Forbidden West had a “cliffhanger” finale was interpreted as leaving the door wide for the sequel. But the fact that this situation is confirmed in a sense by the producers themselves reinforces our hopes for the sequel.
“Horizon is an adventure full of mysteries,” Mathijs de Jonge, creative director of Guerrilla Games, said in an interview with VG247. Each of our stories was about uncovering mysteries, both in the old world and in the time period when the game took place. Indeed, there are a lot of background stories that we can use to develop new stories and take advantage of what we’ve already built to create new mysteries. And this game ends with a “cliffhanger” as the basis for the next game.”
Mathijs de Jonge notes that while the main story told in the first game is basically complete, Aloy has not solved all the problems, so the points left open here are a basis and a starting point for the second game, which is already mentioned in the first game, and thus, based on the connection between the two games, the final of the second game opens the door to the third game.
> Horizon Forbidden West – Review
It’s very good news for me (and of course for the girl, because he loves Aloy very much :)). I am in favor of continuing such series after the water is not removed. Especially when it comes to a company like Guerrilla Games that does its job well and strives to keep putting it on; I think we have reason to look forward to the new game, dear Gamers?
