Press left D-pad or equivalent once to switch to mount call, and call your mount‎. Wait a few moments and turn around to get onto it, then ride through the gate. Mash through Varl's dialogue and get back onto your mount. Follow the road park your mount to the left side of the massacre site entrance (see image or video guide). Jump up the rocks and RFS once you see a save in the bottom right. Roll left and investigate the Corruptor, make sure to mash through the dialogue, roll right toward a watcher and examine it. Mash through the dialogue again. Exit the massacre site quickly towards your mount and get onto it, then RFS once the game saves.

			Ride forward after the loading screen and get off your mount to talk to Dran, mash through his dialogue. Get back onto your mount and exit the massacre site slightly more to the right of the exit, then ride to Mother's crown. Get off your mount once you discover the settlement Mother's Crown and blow up your mount with a bomb, then FT to the campfire inside Mother's Crown. Roll left towards Marea, and mash through her dialogue. Roll out of Mother's Crown and turn your camera right on the exit bridge, then call your mount.

			Get on your mount and ride to the grazer corruption zone, on Story, kill them by lighting their blaze canisters with fire arrows. On UH, hit them with one sticky bomb each. Keep following the path and head towards the corruption zone with scrappers and watchers. When you near the corruption zone, take the path on the right that leads up a hill. On Story, kill the scrappers and watchers with your stormslinger, on UH, kill them with bombs. Now ride towards the side of the Two-Teeth bandit camp, and RFS when the game saves.

			Turn around on your mount, for some hardware your mount may have disappeared, call a new one in that case. Ride towards the Carja Border and kill the machines there with your stormslinger both on UH and Story. Roll toward the gate and call your mount before the cutscene. Skip the cutscene, enter the border and mash through the guard's dialogue and split.

	NG+ is a main leaderboard category within Horizon Zero Dawn where one completes the game in the [[New Game+]] mode. Using this, the player retains all skills, resources, weapons, outfits and other items. The only exception to this is items in the "special items" category. By playing in NG+, players skip the childhood section of the game. The following guide will be for both Story and Ultra Hard difficulty, and will also specify for differences between PS4, PC and PS5.

			Skip the cutscene once the load finishes, roll through the mountain toward you gear. Pick it up and skip the cutscene. Follow Teersa or roll ahead to where she will be, be careful not to block her on the way there. Talk to her as soon as possible and skip the 3 cutscenes. Roll ahead to the exit, but make sure not to get too close to not trigger a brief 'you may not exit' cutscene. Once the line "The other grandmatriarchs are waiting for us, let me do the talking." appears on screen, roll out of the mountain and skip the cutscene. Mash through Teersa's dialogue and roll a bit to the right of the intended path. Drop down the mountain by first walking on it a bit before rolling off, this is to prevent dying from fall damage. Roll towards Resh and speak to him and skip the cutscene.

			Roll over to the lefthand side of the gate, where some logs are piled up. Use these logs to jump up onto the gate and aim at one of the Corruptor's weak spots. For Story, use one hardpoint arrow. For UH, use the damage icerail. When the gate bursts and the screen shakes, fire at the Corruptor's weak spot. Note that the timing for this is fairly precise, and it may take some practice to get right. RFS after you kill the corruptor, roll forward, loot the corruptor, skip the cutscene and mash through Teb's dialogue. FT to the Main Embrace Gate and split.
