Horizon Zero Dawn’s Latest Update Fixes Some Bugs

Guerrilla Games has just launched a new update for Horizon Zero Dawn. The update fixes several remaining issues with the game, including fixing some progression bugs.

The main point of this update was to fix issues preventing players from progressing in the game. This includes fixing bugs for the missions  “The Proving,” “The Womb of the Mountain,” A Seeker at the Gates,” “The City of the Sun,” “The Sun Shall Fall,” The Grave Hoard,” “Deep Secrets of the Earth,” and “The Terror of the Sun.”

The update also fixes some more minor issues with Horizon Zero Dawn. The update fixes objectives not updating, exploration music cutting out, Aloy becoming stuck in her sliding animation, and more.

Here are the full patch notes:

Main Quests

• Fixed an issue in “The Proving” where one of the attackers would fall down the slope.
• Fixed an issue in “The Womb of the Mountain” where the spear would not be in Aloy’s inventory if players opened a treasure box with a DLC item before retrieving Aloy’s weapons. Note: Players who have already encountered the issue will need to reload from a game saved prior to this quest.
• Fixed an issue in “A Seeker at the Gates” where players would be able to enter the gates of Mother’s Watch when fast-traveling to this location.
• Fixed an issue in “A Seeker at the Gates” where the quest objective would not update from “Go to the Carja Border Fort” to “Kill the corrupted machines”.
• Fixed an issue in “A Seeker at the Gates” where players could not progress through the Carja Fort.
• Fixed an issue in “The City of the Sun” where Erend wouldn’t spawn after the dialogue with him ended if players rushed past the civilians on the bridge.
• Fixed an issue in “The Sun Shall Fall” where players couldn’t return to Dervahl if they fast-traveled during the objective “Talk to Dervahl”.
• Fixed an issue in “The Grave Hoard” where skipping the conversation with Sylens at the end of the quest and immediately restarting would prevent “To Curse the Darkness” from starting.
• Fixed an issue in “Deep Secrets of the Earth” where players couldn’t enter the bunker if they fast-traveled away from the objective after they had interacted with the bunker.
• Fixed an issue in “The Terror of the Sun” where Aloy would respawn in an empty arena after being killed by the Behemoth. Note: Players who have already encountered the issue will need to go to Sunfall, at which point they will be teleported back into the arena to continue the quest.
