In Horizon Zero Dawn, fast travel can be accessed by unlocking and reaching any discovered Campfire or Settlement. Simply approach the Campfire or Settlement location on the map and interact with it to fast travel to that specific location, granting you a quick and efficient way to navigate the game world.
Fast traveling in Horizon Zero Dawn
Fast traveling in Horizon Zero Dawn is a convenient way to move between discovered campfires, settlements, and other significant locations on the map without having to traverse the entire landscape on foot. To fast travel in the game, you need to find and activate campfires, which then serve as fast travel points throughout the game world.
Discovering and activating campfires
The first step to enabling fast travel is to discover and activate campfires during your exploration of the game world. Campfires are scattered throughout the map and are usually found near settlements, vantage points, and other points of interest. When you come across a campfire, interact with it to activate it as a fast travel point.
Using the map to fast travel
Once you have activated a campfire as a fast travel point, you can use the in-game map to select a destination and fast travel to that location. Open the map by pressing the designated button on your controller and look for the campfire icons that represent the fast travel points you have unlocked. Click on the desired campfire icon to initiate fast travel to that location.
Consumables for fast travel
While fast traveling in Horizon Zero Dawn is primarily done through campfires, there are consumables called "Fast Travel Packs" that allow you to fast travel even when you are not near a campfire. Fast Travel Packs can be crafted using various resources found throughout the game world or purchased from merchants. Make sure to have an ample supply of Fast Travel Packs in your inventory to enable fast travel at any time.
Strategic use of fast travel
It is important to strategically plan your use of fast travel in Horizon Zero Dawn to maximize its efficiency. Consider fast traveling to locations closer to your objective to minimize travel time and resource consumption. Additionally, use fast travel to revisit areas for collectibles, complete side quests, or engage in specific activities without the need for extensive backtracking.
Unlocking new fast travel points
As you progress through the game and uncover new areas, be on the lookout for undiscovered campfires that can serve as additional fast travel points. Exploring different regions, completing quests, and climbing vantage points can help reveal new campfires and expand your fast travel network across the expansive world of Horizon Zero Dawn.
