Horizon Forbidden West is now available on PlayStation consoles, and players have new side activities like Gauntlet runs, which is essentially machine racing. Gauntlet runs are machine races hosted by Tenakth rebels. These races are conducted with machines. Every competitor gets a Charger to ride throughout the race.
Winning Gauntlet runs can be a difficult task in Horizon Forbidden West, especially if players don’t obtain Stun, Tear, and Shock arrows during the race. The objective is to win the race, and players can do it by collecting multiple speed boosts to get ahead of opponents, or by shooting down opponent Chargers with arrows to slow them down.
