Horizon Forbidden West has been out in the wild now for close to a month. The sequel to 2017's Horizon Zero Dawn is a lengthy experience, and trophy data is showing how many players have actually completed Horizon Forbidden West.
Anyone who has dived into Horizon Forbidden West knows that the title is time-consuming. The continuation of Aloy's adventure pits her against a dangerous new enemy as she battles for the survival of the planet. Horizon Forbidden West also features a wealth of side quests to keep players entertained when they're not diving into the main story. Trophy data offers a unique insight into how far that players actually get into their games, as reported by Push Square.
With the use of trophy data, it is clear to see how many players have actually seen Horizon Forbidden West through to its complicated conclusion. At the time of writing, only 13.7% of players have reached the end of the game (on PS5). The percentage is very close on PS4, with around 12% of players completing the game on the last-gen console, according to Push Square. Of course, the game has only been out for less than a month, so this number will grow over time. For a game as big as Horizon Forbidden West, it comes as no surprise that not many players have finished the main story yet.
This trophy data does not account for every single person who has played Horizon Forbidden West, only those who have their trophy data synchronized online. However, these percentages give a very good idea of how many players have so far finished the main story in this post-apocalyptic open-world game.
Another trophy has gained attention in recent times. Sony is planting trees every time players gain a specific trophy. The trophy in question is called Reaching the Daunt; players gain this trophy early on as they progress through the story.
The machine enemies stood as the unique selling point for Horizon Zero Dawn, and that is still the case for its sequel. The thrilling roster of machine enemies to battle against is one of the unique aspects of these games that pull players into the world of Horizon.
Horizon Forbidden West is out now for PS4 and PS5.
