How to equip face paints in ‘Horizon Forbidden West’: Locations, guide, and more

0


Horizon Forbidden West is a sequel that gives players an even bigger, more beautiful world to explore. As you might expect with an open world game there’s a veritable boatload of things to see and collect in Horizon Forbidden West, and that includes cosmetics. Just like with Horizon Zero Dawn, you can deck Aloy out in a variety of face paint, on top of equipping different outfits. While the face paint is purely cosmetic, Horizon Forbidden West still doesn’t do a great job of explaining just how to use them. Here’s everything you need to know about face paint in Horizon Forbidden West.

How to use face paint in Horizon Forbidden West

Scalding Spear is the main settlement of the third major area you explore in Horizon Forbidden West.Sony

As you play through Horizon Forbidden West you’ll start seeing face paint pop up as a reward for completing various missions, but you might not be able to use them yet. That’s because you’ll need to progress through the game until you reach the settlement of Scalding Spear, which is the third main area you’ll explore. If you’re just following the main story you’ll likely hit the settlement pretty quickly, but if you’re mopping up all side activities it might take a while.

Once you reach Scalding Spear look on your map for an icon that looks like a pickaxe(technically it’s a tattoo needle), and is labeled “Painter.” Head to the icon and you’ll be able to talk to Zokkah, who’ll allow you to spend 10 Shards to equip any face paint you’ve unlocked, or you can pay 1 Shard to remove any face paint you currently have on. You’ll also be able to find Painters in two later settlements, The Bulwark and Thornmarsh, and all three function exactly the same.

It should also be noted that you can equip any face paint in the game’s photo mode for some quick pictures, but the equipped paint will be gone when leaving photo mode.
