How to Override Machines and Unlock More Mounts

In order to do so, you must first location one of the six available Cauldrons that can be found across the map. Each Cauldron will be responsible for creating a set number of unique machines, typically local to the region. See All Cauldrons Locations here.

Aloy must fight her way through each of these Cauldrons, where she must override their cores to learn overrides for many of the different types of machines.

  • Fully Unlocked:
    • Unlocked automatically upon completion of the Cauldron.
  • Partially Unlocked:
    • After completing its respective Cauldron, you’ll need to further unlock this machine via the Fabrication Terminal in The Base before you can override it.

Below is the complete list of all four Mountable Machines in Horizon Forbidden West, as well as the Cauldron in which they are unclocked.

  • Charger - Cauldron: PSI (Automatically unlocked)
