Horizon Forbidden West has been out lengthy sufficient now that the sport’s artists are free to put up their work on websites like ArtStation, so tonight we’re going to be looking at every kind of stuff that went into the sport’s creation.
As traditional once we check out massive recreation roundups like this, I gained’t be posting every part from everybody concerned within the recreation’s improvement, as a result of I can solely match so many photographs on this web site earlier than it breaks. What I shall be doing, although, is offering a useful cross-section of items that provides you with an perception into the creation of Forbidden West’s visible id.
Right here’s Ari’s evaluation of the sport from again in February, in case you haven’t performed it or would similar to a fast recap:
Setting apart the high-minded sci-fi hijinks, Horizon Forbidden West is at its core concerning the extent to which characters will go to search out religion and which means. In her newfound “savior” standing—once more, nonetheless bizarre—Aloy finds herself fielding many of those evidence-free assertions. Folks go on and on about “land gods” and “diviners” and “legacies” and blah blah blah. At each flip, Aloy reacts to those whims with curled-lip bemusement. They declare to see god. Aloy is aware of the reality; she actually sees it.
By the tip of the sport, I discovered myself reacting to Horizon Forbidden West itself with an analogous curled-lip bemusement.
And in case you’d wish to step additional again in time, or simply missed it the primary time round after I posted it in 2017, you possibly can head right here for the same roundup of Horizon Zero Daybreak’s artwork.
The artwork beneath is in no explicit order, and consists of items from each Guerrilla’s personal inner staff and contracted artists as properly. You’ll discover hyperlinks to every artist’s portfolio of their names.
