“Does Aloy murder people?” Yes... very yes. Fixed spelling, my bad

I’m actually glad they added more into the melee combat. Though the bow is still her bread and butter.

You know what else would be a system seller for Sony... Simply having available PS5s.

Max: Robots can't go in water? Snapmaw has entered the chat

This game had me at the robo-mammoth. That was the ONE thing that Frozen Wilds was missing--a mammoth.

Horizon Zero Dawn was one of those games that I bought because it looked cool, but ended up being one of the best Sci-Fi games i’ve ever played.

"She has to have the breath of the wild glider" RIP Infamous slow fall powers

08:51 "Yeah it visually looks crazy" Me, with only one bar of net and in 144p: It sure does, Max

"I feel like I'm watching a Killzone trailer" Well at least Guerilla's still got it after all these years lol, Horizon is made by the same studio as Killzone

In my opinion horizon zero dawn has to be the most visually stunning game I have ever played. The environments are so beautiful and most definitely including at night. All of my ps4 home backgrounds are from the photomode of this game. Even today, I just run around the map trying to find that perfect picture.

“you always said a storm was coming.” “yeah and it’s almost here.” bitch, that storm looks here already lol.

Horizon Zero Dawn still looks good 4 years later but this, this is just crazy

Honestly this and Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart are the main games I want when I get a PS5.

I don't know about you but aloys spear finally appearing on her back instead of only in cutscene is a huge plus to me. It was a major pet peeve I had in the first game and I'm glad it got fixed.

I love the first game so this gameplay gives so much joy to see

Looking forward to this sequel so much. The story of Horizon: Zero Dawn was a friggin masterpiece imo.

Playing the Horizon Zero Dawn for the first time now. Now one of my favourite games ever. This gameplay trailer just blew me away. The underwater scenery is out of this world. Thank you PlayStation Studios!

She wasn't talking underwater or talking out loud to herself for that matter, that's just her internal thoughts that you are hearing aloud to convey what she is thinking/feeling

Dam this is absolutely beautiful imagine what god of war is going to look like

This game franchise makes me miss Zoids.

Gameplay: goes for a minute Aloy: This partys getting crazy lets rock

"She has that arsenal in her back pocket" dang he missed her picking that gun up

I think that was her destroyed ultimate hahaha

Playing through HZD on PC rn and it’s phenomenal. Can’t wait to play HFW on PS5!

This presentation made me tear up from how unbelievably beautiful and epic this game looks but also tear up from pure frustration because I still can’t afford or even find a PS5. But the day I do and the day I play this on PS5 will be a truly beautiful moment because even 4 years later this is still my favorite PS4 game, with my favorite lead female video character.

I am SO excited about the face rigs..they've improved a lot since the first game, and their facial animation and expressions are so much more believable. Love it.

the first game was amazing, only the melee really lacked, but outside that. 10/10. this next one is gonna be cool to see what they add

Visually, probably one of the most beautiful games I've ever seen. If this game really looks like this constantly, then props.

"This game is blowing my ass right now" is maybe my favorite saying ever

I swear we're getting closer and closer to flat out playing cgi cutscenes. It's wild! This game is beautiful!

I'm replaying Zero Dawn rn and I forgot just how gorgeous it is. It really holds up! I refuse to fast travel because I just love exploring and gawking at the environments! I can't wait to explore Forbidden West even more 😩

I only recently realized Horizon Zero Dawn had actually been given to me for free on my PS4. Decided to give it a shot. Not too far but what little i've currently played is amazing, so I am very stoked for Forbidden West already.

What max is secretly saying “ man I wish this was blood borne 2 “

Max: This is a system seller. Sony: We have no systems to sell. Me: (Deep Depression)

"Feel like I'm looking at a Killzone trailer circa 2006." Well it is the same devs, though I'm pretty sure ever since then they stopped doing that whole "show a pre-rendered cinematic and say it's gameplay" thing (at least I don't recall them doing that when the first Horizon was coming out).

15:40 Lord Raiden is using the amulet again.

It's a good time to be a gamer.

me after seeing the underwater section: That's a lot of fish

I loved the first Horizon, Amazing game. The story is so cool, also the graphics and gameplay are awesome 🤗

If you love Zoids, oh boy will you love this game.

Tfw Post-apocalyptic San Francisco in a fictional US looks less like it went through an apocalypse than actual San Francisco.

Kinda surprised no one has pointed out the fact that at the beginning of the gameplay when Aloy encounters those raptor-like machines, that one of them sounded like the Cleric Beast from Bloodborne

I clicked faster than my brain cpuld register it I didn't know Max had any interest in Horizon

Yeah, hopefully they design some cool armors for Alloy. The only ones I liked in the first game was a Banuk heavy you can get early (mostly for the headpiece) and the Shadow Stalwart Heavy/Adept you get much later.

The first game story is so God damn amazing absolutely can't wait to play on the ps5

... man... i'm so glad Max was silent during the moment at 6:00 to appreciate the music here. I got straight up movie vibes here. So breathtaking.

Glider exist Literally everybody: Another breath of the wild type game

Yes Max you definitely should do Horizon Zero Dawn, its a lot of fun!

*Okay, the Mammoth is Robot Mummakil from Lord of the Rings to me and that's awesome.* Also I LOVE destructible environments.

The 1st Horizon was EPIC asf... idk how people have forgotten how dope that game was/is. Especially Frozen Wilds. Smh... This looks like a continuation of the Awesomeness of the 1st Game.

This just gets me more excited for the next Monster Hunter World game

thats probably why they have that talking man at the start, to spot any synch issues

The first one is great and this showcase just highlighted how they improved the few flaws it had and made everything else better and smoother. I'm sure he's gonna like it but put too much attention to it's flaws even tho you get used to them. There is a 4k video of the showcase btw, I don't know if he already watched it.

U know its Playstation game when max looks excited in the thumbnail.

Calling it now, the new trend for open world games is grappling hooks; Halo: Infinite, Horizon: Zero Dawn, any next gen game not announced yet will probably have them too. It's just a very useful gaming mechanic that tends to have no drawbacks and gives more versatility and control to the player. Grappling hook for the win!

10:07 ok so I'm not the only one that thought that was like a fighting game super

Today I learned San Francisco is the Forbidden West

5:38 "they have monster roars" you can actually hear the cleric beast from Bloodborne

I also didn't finish the first game near launch, but decided to give it a go again after they gave the Complete Edition for free and I actually enjoyed it much better the second time. The sequel's demo pretty much added my most wanted features which were more close combat and traversal options, I also hope they double on the Monster Hunter inspirations and add hunting sidequests with variant machines, the introduction to the hunter's guild on the first one ended too briefly with only one special Thunderjaw.

Play the first one max! The story is actually pretty damn good

There needs to be a Zoids game with these graphics 😍

Zero Dawn was one of my favorite games of the generation. Big surprise for me too, I platinum'd the game without even realizing it, and I almost never pay attention to trophy requirements.

That's why it's called Forbidden West. It really is in San Fran gotta go finish the first now i haven't beaten it either myself...

I always wanted Monster Hunter to take elements of Horizon Zero Dawn's combat system. If Horizon Forbidden West takes elements of Monster Hunters like fighting various different types of monster machines, this will be a great game. I didn't think HZD had enough massive machines to fight against.

Oh you will fall in love with it. This is the few Adventure type gaming that i like because the story is so original so far and graphics are amazing. Im all about graphics and this game is like a buffet of graphics

I really wanted to play this mission when I got the game but it doesn’t exist, this demo is a mash-up put together to put on display the new features and show off some new machines you battle. The only time you face the Tremortusk in battle during a main quest pales in comparison to the fight in this demo. In fact none of the cut-scenes or dialogue is in the final game. That being said Horizon FW was fantastic. It was like Zero Dawn on steroids in nearly every way that made it’s predecessor awesome to play.

1. Underwater she was using her internal monolog 2. There wasn't a arsenal in her back pocket, I'm not sure how you missed her shooting the gun off and picking it up.....

I lost it at that Guilty Gear looking animation, indeed it was her level 3 super

10:07 She has a SFV CA

15:43 Vergil: I’m the Storm that is Approaching

its the seamless land/water transitions for me

Has this person even played Horizon Zero Dawn before??? Lmaoo "Does Aloy murder people??" "I just remember the environments being just deserts in the first game" whattt

You know what would really sell consoles?... actually having consoles to sell!

@10:43 that's the famous Lombard Street in San Fran

I really recommend trying the 1st one in case you haven't played it yet! It was a really solid game - especially considering that it was Guerilla Games' open world debut! Just don't expect too much inovation in terms of the gameplay. Apart from the machines there isn't a whole lot of stuff (if any) there that we haven't seen in other titles before, often times even better like for example the tracking mechanics of Aloy that have been done so much better in the witcher. This is a bit disappointing in particular since Aloy _IS in fact_ a tracker with her device and also in terms of the lore but this part hasn't been fleshed out at all in the game. So I really hope they'll expand on that front in Forbidden West! Also I'd wish to see them change some of the asthetics of the game like a less stiff, or less traditional menu that the lore with Aloys holo-device would give such a great opportunity for something very fresh and futuristic that doesn't pull the player out of the game so much - same goes for the weapon wheel! However that's probably not gonna happen.. But other than that the game was amazing and it's definitely worth the time!

Just occurred to me the buddy had a focus too, tech growing in their society I suppose not just aloy Yeah she has a lvl3 super for sure Take visuals with a grain of salt always

Ironically that’s what San Francisco will look like in a few years 😂

I mean most of us are already doing that, I have 1000 screenshots for the original game, with this one will probably be 2k-3k even lol. I don’t have a single game except this one above 100 photos. That tells you a lot. Reading every comment, sad to see some people found it boring, I loved it from start to finish and it’s story had me crying at every point, I can’t even think about this game or watch trailers without bawling my eyes out, don’t even get me started on the music. I’m looking forward to crying my heart out in Forbidden West honestly can’t wait. Wish more people could enjoy it to the degree I did, to feel how I feel about it, but yeah no such thing, too bad really.

I spend most of my days screen capturing and editing my camera stills when i played the first game. So breathtaking.

This game would be a system seller...if there were actual systems available to sell.

I hope it looks like this on ps5, and doesn't get downgraded.

this is what i imagined what dino-riders would be like in this century

I really love seeing Max trip about these visuals as someone that plays most games on a PC. I'm so tired of hearing my friends downplay the visuals because they think PC games look better than this does. I play a ton of games on PC, and have seen RE8 (arguably one of the best looking PC games right now) at max settings, this game is next level shit. An open-world with this amount of detail, variety, and lighting is insane. Its honestly so visually stunning that I have a hard time believing its real. However, if Sony's past offering are anything to go by, it DOES look that good.

she looks like Nikkado Avocado

this game already looking fantastic. now we gotta see gameplay of the new god of war at e3

That black dude in the beginning is like when you ask your girl if you can try her drink and it taste's better than the drink you ordered.

The face though, I mean Alloy's. The face of terror.

I thought the first game was alright. Story didn’t blow my socks off, and felt kinda whatever but fighting the giant robot dinosaurs was cool and was definitely the best part of the game. Fighting humans was probably the worst part of it, as well as the melee combat in the first game which they seem to be improving in the second, so I’m down for playing this whenever this comes out.

I hope my ps5 survives this level graphics, between Ratched, Horizon and God of War.

That digital world map looked like something from iron man as well. Another awesome sequel has arrived

Yep, the first game was mostly the US Southwest, while this is San Francisco with underwater portions.

man the animations and attention to detail are up there with the last of us 2

Wait a minute, hold up, has Max not played Horizon Zero Dawn?! Blasphemy!!!

I love the description of her new outfit as "Pukei-Pukei Armor".

It seems they put an entire team to work non-stop on Aloy's hair for at least 4 months.

why doesn't max play horizon already it's soooooo good especially on pc

I just got the first one cuz it's free right now. Pretty good so far. This also looks pretty dang good. BUT this trailer did spoil that yellow mohawk guy isnt the bad guy of the first game like I was expecting.

The underwater swimming is what I'd expect for a 3D Donkey Kong swimming levels to look... Never played Zero Dawn but I did pick the game up at a discounted price a while back, complete with all the DLC too. I'll probably wait until I hook up my PS5...

This kind of event is the exact thing Elden Ring is in desperate need of. Glad Sony knows how to market their AAA titles.

Seriously Sony is going for the Throne idk who can stop them right now. This game is cross gen lol lmao....
