Horizon Forbidden West details Aloy's new moves and tools in a dev update

Over on the PlayStation Blog, there is a new post all about Horizon Forbidden West and the various ways in which players will be able to get around, thanks to the vast array of new equipment and moves that Aloy has access to.

“Building upon the foundation of Horizon Zero Dawn, we have added a number of new ways to move through the world,” says David McMullen, Lead Systems Designer at Guerrilla. “Aloy can climb freely on and across huge sections of rocky terrain; even more machine types can be used as mounts; grapple points can be found throughout the environment which allows agile vertical traversal; swimming underwater has opened up a whole new aspect of exploration; and gliding with the Shieldwing provides the ultimate view of the beautiful world of Horizon Forbidden West – not to mention a quick way down from great heights!”

A lot of this new offerings can be seen in the gameplay trailer below, but I would highly suggest you head on over and give the full post a read, you can do that here. Just be aware, it is quite a lengthy post, so it will take a bit of time, but it is so detailed as well, that it will help with the wait until the game releases next year.

The game is coming to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on February 18, with a few ways to get the game, those hoping for a PC release, like Horizon Zero Dawn, there is nothing revealed right now.
