The storyline of PSVR2’s Horizon Call of the Mountain
The story’s protagonist is Ryas, a disgraced former Carja soldier who was instrumental in the kidnapping of young Prince Itamen from his home in Meridian. In addition to Ryas, Call of the Mountain introduces players to three additional characters. The first people Ryas meets are Carja soldiers Hami and Kavad, whose job it is to accompany him by boat to Marad so he can start his mission. Ryas is sent to Marad because he needs his assistance. They find that the mountain has something luring machines to it, and Marad informs him that his brother went to look into it but hasn’t come back. Marad is worried because the machines that are being pulled to the mountain tore up a settlement. Interesting, right? You view the world through Ryas’ eyes as he searches for atonement for his previous deeds. However, a couple of Snapmaws soon force them to turn back, and one of them kills Kavad as Ryas tries to save him. There are also cameos throughout the story, further establishing connections.
Next in line are the heart-racing battles against machines—the true evils you are fighting.
These epic encounters are where Horizon Call of the Mountain PSVR2 truly shines.

You take your hand to your back to get the bow, then pick up an arrow. Think about it. You will feel like an archer, so to speak. Your weaponry may expand, but you will only have small weapons. The haptic feedback adds a real kick to each hit, making you feel every shot you fire. It’s like you’re right there in the action, fighting for your life against these mechanical giants.
What fun would it be if you didn’t feel like a hero trying to save the world? Well, there might be instances where you feel stuff getting repeated, but as you dwell deeper into the narrative, you’ll know what all you have been doing.
While Horizon Call of the Mountain has a compelling premise, some players might find the
storytelling sparse, with loose plot threads here and there. As mentioned earlier, it has
characters and cameos, but you are not going deeper into what’s happening with the others because the primary goal is to showcase what PSVR2 is capable of. But don’t worry; the adventure is still captivating, with quests and missions that’ll keep you there.
Don’t think too much about what needs improvement; no game is without its hiccups. Here, the allure of the stunning virtual world substitutes for any minor imperfections along the way. Every movement of your body counts, from the movement of your eyeballs to sniffing your nose. You are in complete control, and sometimes you are not.
Horizon Call of the Mountain PSVR2 is not just a technical showcase; it’s a testament to the potential of virtual reality gaming. Considering the minus points, it is not a complete disappointment because, frankly, such intense immersion would lead you to ignore the missing puzzle pieces.
Horizontal Call of the Mountain will have you thinking about the future of immersive
experiences and storytelling in the gaming world. So, if you’re ready to embark on an
unforgettable VR adventure, answer the call of the mountains, and jump right into this boat.
