A video by blogger ElAnalistaDeBits has been released, showcasing locations not only from Horizon Forbidden West, but also from the first adventure, Zero Dawn. The video shows buildings and places featured in the game alongside comparisons with their real-world counterparts.
Such comparisons were made possible because the teams created a post-apocalyptic setting envisioned across a devastated western part of the United States. In particular, the team drew inspiration from states such as Montana, Idaho, California, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and others.
