Horizon Forbidden West vs The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Horizon Forbidden West
Horizon Forbidden West lets you join Aloy in the 2nd part of her journey. This time, you will explore the picturesque and majestic yet perilous frontier of the now-ruined city of San Francisco set in the far-flung future. You’ll recognize various landmarks, sunken or otherwise, including the Golden Gate Bridge.As the series heroine, you will investigate the sources of vicious storms and blight, threatening to destroy the land and wipe out the remaining enclaves of humanity and life on Earth itself. Aloy needs to restore balance to the world and uncover the mysteries behind these events. Unfortunately, things aren’t straightforward since she has to contend with new and familiar enemies. You’ll need to deal with snake-like machines, humongous elephants, as well as those that exist underwater. Moreover, hostile human tribes are more advanced since they now mount machines of their own and are capable of controlling combat-class machines bent on destruction. Thankfully, Aloy still has her trusty bow and spear, able to take out enemies using her arsenal of arrows and advanced combat abilities.
Horizon Forbidden West is one of PlayStation’s first exclusives in this new console generation (though it’s compatible with the PS4), and it promises to be another adventure worth undertaking.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild brings you a whole new and groundbreaking adventure where you are free to explore the wild, ruined kingdom of Hyrule whichever way you like, though for some places, you may need to equip Link with the appropriate outfits so he can brave the elements in that region. There are tons of Shrines of Trials scattered across the world for you to find, but be careful, there are plenty of dangers that lurk in the wilderness as well and you'd be wise to be constantly vigilant. Interestingly, with so many changes in place, the game still retains the core of a Legend of Zelda game where you'll get to explore the catacombs within these Shrines and possibly emerge with special items and other equally fantastic rewards.The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is definitely a brilliant and somewhat revolutionary addition to the renowned Legend of Zelda game franchise. If you're a fan of the series, you'll want to buy it... like right now.
