Horizon Forbidden Westhas been out for well over a month now, and though some believe the game’s release may have been slightly overshadowed byElden Ring, plenty of gamers have been exploring the sequel to the hitPlayStation exclusiveHorizon Zero Dawn.With an expansive new map, story, and set of machines,Horizon Zero Dawnhas plenty of content for players to dig into, and where the map is concerned there are plenty of secrets to be found.
Some of these secrets, though, are seemingly best left undiscovered, as one player found out while exploring the Sheerside Mountains. Among the mountains is a rebel outpost known as The Greypeak. While players can get to the location by foot, it’s recommended they travel through the air if they want to find the strange glitch inHorizon Forbidden West.Once arriving at The Greypeak, players will be able to spot an odd cave. To reach the cave, they must clamber up the slope to its left before gliding down into its entrance. Once a player is in the cave is where things get strange.

A quick jump in the cave will reveal that it is in fact a bottomless pit to the center ofHorizon Forbidden West’sworld. Players will immediately glitch outside of the map, though by gliding they can travel underneath the world, seeingHorizon Forbidden West’smountain ranges from a weird angle.Glitches like this have happened before inHorizon Forbidden West, and there’s even been a similar case in the Sheerside Mountains where a player fell through an invisible base.
WhileHorizon Forbidden Westis not known to be a horrendously buggy game, it does have the odd glitch and can put players in less than ideal positions more often than not. Kappa’s Cauldron, one of manyCauldron locations players can explore inHorizon Forbidden Westwas known to have a bug that would respawn players outside of the game’s boundaries. Though, these glitches can have their uses, as many players pointed out that the invisible cave leading to the center of the world allowed players to glide for long time, meaning they could easily pick up the “Complete a Long Glide” achievement.
With a game as large in scope asHorizon Forbidden West, a few bugs were inevitable. Although, developer Guerrilla Games is working consistently on new patches to support the game and fix bugs as they pop up. Recently,Guerrilla Games even dropped two patches at once forHorizon Forbidden West, seeking to fix a host of the game’s issues.
Horizon Forbidden Westis available now on PS4 and PS5.
