Horizon Forbidden West has blown us away with its incredible graphics! We can't stop taking pictures in photo mode! Check the community tab for some of our snaps so far - and to get involved in the latest Photo Mode Spotlight!
I have been playing it all day, it s absolutely mind blowing, the way it looks the amount of detail, it s just unbelievably immersive. The cutscenes and characters are amazing! Everything feels so alive!
Yes the world feels so alive... I love being in settlements, there's so much movement, everybody is talking eachother i just love the atmosphere. In some places fells a lot like monster hunter
Playing this on PS5 with a 4 k monitor on resolution mode, and I keep just standing around staring at things like moss, or particle effects. This game is literally jaw dropping.
Nothing has pulled me through a game's levels more than the prospect of flying a sunwing in this game! Flying across the map on a Sunwing is one of the best things you can do in any game.
Playing on PS4 Pro and it looks stunning. The staff at Guerilla should be extremely proud of what they have achieved. First time I have Day One'd since GTA 4 and have no regrets
Red Dead Redemption 2 still looks amazing and gorgeous even though it’s a little over 3 years old now 😁 I’m really looking forward to playing it, i’ve been closing my eyes every time gameplay came up, i didn’t even watch this video 😁
I have noticed that the characters animations have really evolved since Zero Dawn, they are now so realistic, fluid and interactions are really human like, showing emotions like you would expect in reality.
The combination between Rob & Ash in this episode & commentary & gameplay is phenomenal. Genuine quality from a PS Access Episode this is Excellent. It really shows off what this game has to offer and gives us everything we want from this game.
I'm 16 hours into this game, and I haven't even finished the prologue yet! So, you can imagine where my time was spent in the game! Best looking game, and it makes my PS5 purchase worth every single penny!
@@DhilipNexus I'm a virtual photographer over on Instagram, so I've been spending a lot of time in the photo mode! Also, I make some good reels, so definitely in the lookout for high quality reels for my Instagram vp account!
@@Hassan32132 coz I appreciated the game's visuals and explored way more than it should've been. Also, I spent almost 11hrs out of those 16hrs in the photo mode, captured some cool shots to be uploaded on my vp page! So, before calling anything dumb, use that little brain of yours first and then make such comments! Cheers! 👍
Stayed up till five in the morning playing and I can't wait to pull an all nighter again tonight! So much fun. Feels exactly like Zero Dawn, just better everything. It's like I never left.
I had to apply my annual leave just to go ham on my PS5 for this game few days nxt week. It looks riddiculously, absolutely, unbelievably beautiful running on PS5's Fidelity mode in a 4K, HDR display. Every inch of the game is meticulously crafted with such respect & quality. Fun fact: I intentionally bought Digital Deluxe on PS5 because for me Guerilla absolutely deserves my support 😍😍 Horizon 2 is hands down the most beautiful open world game I hv ever played.
Horizon Forbidden West is amazing. The graphics are stunning , the open world is gigantic and a joy to explore, it’s my personal showcase game for the PS5’s graphics. 👏👏👏👏 Still enjoy exploring the open world after getting the platinum, it’s the type of game you can explore the world for hours in
I just arrived at Plainsong and I actually had to stop playing and just stand there looking at it. I'd imagine if they ever remade Final Fantasy IX, Cleyra would kinda look like this.
I don't even own a ps5 only a slim model and I've been majorly impressed and blown away by the amount of detail, quality and immersiveness of this game 🎮 it is definitely on a whole other level visually.
I'm playing it now (day off work 😊) and just having a break to watch this and completely agree with everything you've said. It's simply amazing! And the water...oh the water... 😁
Oh, man, you're so lucky!!!! I bought mine last night (midnight) and am soooo impacicent waiting for it to get here, not to mention the email that said it has been shipped!
It looks great and I bought it yesterday, I haven't played it yet. Digital Foundry found cutscene stutter to be an issue in the 60fps performance mode on PS5. Guerrilla games is a top company, I m sure they will patch that, won't they?
Yeah, there are plenty shimmering graphics artifacts with performance mode - but for me, it is unplayable in graphics priority mode because of the fps drop - the jittery graphics sets my migraines off.
My heart is bleeding, because I currently don't have the money to buy any of the games in this INSANE February. And watching this video didn't exactly help with me feeling better. How unbelievably good looking is this game?! D:
Such a beautiful game. I will definitely be picking it up. It's just a shame it came out the same week as the huge Cyberpunk PS5 patch. I've been holding off playing that since I got my PS5 at launch. The saviour of Meridian will have to wait a little while... 🙂
Why is no one mentioning the texture pop in. I noticed in Zero Dawn as well. Looks incredible, don’t get me wrong, but I’d rather smaller higher quality open worlds. Far cry 3 was the perfect size, in my opinion. Just build up and dig down to make worlds more dynamic and connected.
I would say Forbidden West is one of most beautiful graphics game in game history, it take care on many detail and incredible light and shadow, I can't find any game better on console.
Snowy areas have always been my favorite in games and my wife like to give me s**t about it cause I oogle over it too much lol. I can't help it, love the snow :-)
I really want to watch this but don't want any more visual spoilers! I ordered a copy last night and CAN'T WAIT until it gets here!!!!! I'm so impaciently waiting for the confirmation email that says it has shipped!!!
Hi, can anyone help me with picture settings for my tv please? (I have samsung q49q60r). What picture settings should I use for best gaming experience?
The game looks good. At least for the 30 min I played it before I went to work at 5am. I have light flickering though. When I jump the grass gets darker or lighter. I can’t remember.
It's gorgeous in resolution mode, but the 60fps performance mode has a lot of room for improvement. A lot of aliasing on foliage. There's a lot of grousing about this on the Horizon subreddit, and for once, it's justified.
I'm sure some will debate the claim, but I find it impossible to disagree. Based on the avaliable evidence, HFW must surely be the most beautiful game on PS5.

I was excited but then i sorta ran out of money 🤣
Had my apartment painted instead but i’ll be playing it next month 😁
Rob! What TV are you using, mate?
Seeing as you had San Francisco noted, I am surprised you didn't have the Giant Sequoia section highlighted. Truly Stunning
all a waste for immersion with a 3rd person character always seen
Definitely the only post-apocalyptic world I wouldn't mind vacationing in.
Minus the killer robots and killer fanatics but beautiful rendered world
@@Tousanx you mean Zion national park?

I 100% agree and with the cutscenes, i nearly teared up talking to Erand, he felt so real to talk to and his performance is incredible.
@@irisvanderzon5880 even green quest, they are fully animated like fullfleged cutscenes, absolutely love it
Can't wait to see what Team Santa Monica can do with their God of War game. These Sony first party games are killing it.
I’m only 2 hours in, but this game is already absolutely amazing, I cannot even believe how great it looks
Did you get the flying mount yet??
Playing this on PS5 with a 4 k monitor on resolution mode, and I keep just standing around staring at things like moss, or particle effects. This game is literally jaw dropping.

Facts bro! The Sunwing is a treat to use in the game 😊
Every time Access talks about Horizon, it is like having Holly back in the office for just a little while.

I can't wait to play some more after work today! Started it this morning and I am in awe of this game.
I did the same. Played about 20 min before work.
I played an hour before.. and I work from home.: the temptation is stroooong.. friggin beautiful game
@@carloscolon1279 dude I work from home too and the temptation is insane. Maybe on lunch break? Lol
Literally same lol
Lol I already have it downloaded but I’m waiting until my 2 off days so I have 2 free days to just play!!
Honestly, I can’t get over HOW good this game looks! Even the smallest details in rocks is amazing!!
This is what the new avatar game needs to look like
The fog in the distance is something I've seen in a beautiful Oregon morning
Facts
The "giraffe" water patterns are called caustics
Ooooo, cool! i LOVE THAT!
Cause tis
harsh name for a beautiful phenomenon

Man, PS Studios quality is just something else. Every single major release from them is something to behold.
100%

This game is ridiculously beautiful! Words cant really explain it but this video is close.
I love the game.
Guerilla Games really out did themselves!
how is this when compared to avatar game?
Love the vibe of the game, feels a lot like Avatar.
I don't even own a ps5 only a slim model and I've been majorly impressed and blown away by the amount of detail, quality and immersiveness of this game 🎮 it is definitely on a whole other level visually.
Hope you got a PS5 now 😊
I’m glad Ash could appreciate the the elegance in which Rob describes moments in video games. A true passion for the art of video games
I'm playing it now (day off work 😊) and just having a break to watch this and completely agree with everything you've said. It's simply amazing! And the water...oh the water... 😁
Oh, man, you're so lucky!!!! I bought mine last night (midnight) and am soooo impacicent waiting for it to get here, not to mention the email that said it has been shipped!
If people the kind of Bobby Rottick hadn't crept into videogame companies, all videogames would look awesome like Guerrilla's.
Facts!!
I love the descriptions you both have for things!
Haven't had the luck of finding a PS5, but even on PS4 with HDR this game is breathtaking
GOTY and early strong contender for Game of the Generation. It's that good.
Rob just wanted to talk about his water some more and that’s perfectly fine.
One year later I have finished the game for the 200th time!
It’s a masterpiece!
I preordered a special edition but it was delayed...Will get it from the store in roughly 12 hours time, as it's midnight here in the Philippines. ❤❤❤
Mine got delayed due to a storm (UK) but I am not sure I can wait. I'm tempted to just buy it from the PS store 😂
Fantastic game but been playing on the performance mode, the 60fps is a deal breaker for me when playing a game like this and it still looks amazing.
It is an understatement when I say it far exceeded the hype ☝️😶
Absolutely in my opinion one of the best looking games its like your playing a cut scene its unreal
The only game where I don’t mind 4k 30fps. Game is stunning!
I'm so excited, HZD is my absolute favorite game. Never been so excited for a game ever
Just one word. GORGEOUS! 😁
100% 💯
Was this shot in the performance mode or the resolution mode?
Hows it on the ps4? Mine didn't get delivered on release day so gotta wait until after weekend :(
Pause at 7:20 that snowstorm looks just like the storm we are having now
It's ray tracing that makes the lighting more realistic. Gotta love technology.
I was,going to hold off for this but now all I want in life is to play this game. I'll purchase it this weekend
Mind blown... this game needs to be seen to be believed. Must play
I'm playing this on my PS4 fat... it's beautiful... It's like having an airplane in my living-room.
One of the Best Open World Game Ever🔥🔥🙌
I am sooooooo excited to complete this game 4 years after its release like I did the original. Can’t wait!!
Why can't you whistle anymore to attract an enemy from the grass ? or is it a unlockable skill ?
Pink sky in the night is sailors' delight.
About 2 hours before I can go pick up and get my copy. Can't wait and I have a 3-day weekend, perfect timing.

@@theanimaster I heard they had patched the shimmer
Can you revisit this after the generation is over, not just a year in?
might be the first time 'giraffe' was used to describe water
My heart is bleeding, because I currently don't have the money to buy any of the games in this INSANE February. And watching this video didn't exactly help with me feeling better. How unbelievably good looking is this game?! D:

All this, and VR on the way! Let's go!
Waiting for it to install and will be delving into it “right” soon. Can't wait :)

I would say that Ratchet & Clank is technically more impressive being made for PS5 only. Horizon still reminds me of a last gen game like red dead
you play it in resolution mode on a 4K screen?
@@pesgoatinho1829 One is a Huge Stunning Open world game and One is a Beautiful Linear Game😎not the same
I would say Forbidden West is one of most beautiful graphics game in game history, it take care on many detail and incredible light and shadow, I can't find any game better on console.
gotta love the fact half the video literally just Rob drooling over the water graphics
Rob and Ash are actually from the tourism department of Horizon
Pretty sure these days San Francisco would trade for that post-apocalyptic scenario in a heartbeat.
I played 8 hours of it... It is gorgeous.
some reviewers gave this game a score of 60/100
6:23 😂
Giraff patterns. Yup, I can totally see it. :)
I'm torn between my desire to play it, now that it's finally out, and my addiction to playing Pokemon: Legends Arceus on the Switch
Resolution ore 60 fps mode ?
I thought the one in the thumbnail was Ash 😂
Only thing about water is when it breaks it just doesn't look quite right
It’s so gorgeous!
Snowy areas have always been my favorite in games and my wife like to give me s**t about it cause I oogle over it too much lol. I can't help it, love the snow :-)

Even with favor performance mode the visuals are still amazing!
Playing on ps5, I'm 80 mins in and I didn't even get to the first machines in tutorial. I'm just running around and looking at everything.
I love your content
Is it best to play the first one first
Yes
30 more minutes till it’s downloaded because I’m an idiot but hey I can’t wait thanks for the preview y’all
Watching this while the game is installing 😁
Hi, can anyone help me with picture settings for my tv please? (I have samsung q49q60r). What picture settings should I use for best gaming experience?
* Best looking game on any Platform.
There, fixed it.
Based on this review, Rob and Ash, I’m buying this game!! You’ve convinced me!!
The game looks good. At least for the 30 min I played it before I went to work at 5am. I have light flickering though. When I jump the grass gets darker or lighter. I can’t remember.
The graphics are insane.
Game would look a lot better in 4k 60fps. Can't fathom how they couldn't get at higher resolution with 60fps, instead of the ever so choppy 30fps
The particles 🤣🤣🤣
San Francisco Bay looks so much better in this game than it does in real life...
I’m gonna boot this up once I finish my shift. It looks gorge AF!
OMG it's gorgeous! I just played a few hours in 4 k om my 1m85 TV.... OMG
Sing Along: 🎶🎶"It's the most, apocalyptic time, of the year!!!🎶🎶
Can you imagine how God of War Valhalla will look like being a PS5 title?
Valhalla? Do you mean Ragnarok?

Why is nobody talking about how good this game looks on ps 4 pro?

The Game is absolutly amazing, but for me personally, I wished for less lens flare... it kinda hurts my eyes...
