PSVR 2's premiere launch title makes the case for Sony's biggest stars to enter the virtual world with amazing results…
Horizon Call of the Mountain is a VR spin-off of the main Horizon series, following Ryas, a former member of the Shadow Carja group, one of the many splintered factions in the world of Horizon. The game begins with Ryas in chains, being led to answer for his crimes. When the boat you’re being transferred on is tipped into the water by Snapmaws, you’re enlisted to pay for your crimes in a new way, by finding out what happened to a missing member of Horizon series protagonist Aloy’s tribe.
The game manages to accurately recreate the tense, rapid-fire fights of the main series, dodging out of the way of projectiles and lining up shots to tear pieces of armour for the chassis of vulnerable foes. It’s incredible just how quickly we found ourselves getting lost in the fantasy, closing one eye as we drew back the bow, ready for the kill shot. It genuinely makes you forget you’re sitting in your room at 2 AM waving around controllers: it’s a bit magical.
There’s some awkwardness with switching between climbing implements that we wish were smoothed over, as it takes one out of the experience somewhat to have to look down at a disembodied menu on your virtual hand to select certain tools. “The scale of the machines is genuinely breathtaking, and it’s impossible not to be taken aback by a Thunderjaw charging toward you for the first time. This isn’t gimmick VR, it’s an immersive experience backed up by great gameplay.”
