Unlike most, it’s limited, relying on Fast Travel Packs - items carried by Aloy - in order to work. However, there is a way to unlock that mechanic and grant unlimited fast travel to any discovered Campfire, thanks to the Golden Fast Travel Pack. So, exactly how does fast travel work, how do you get the Golden Fast Travel Pack, and how exactly do you unlock unlimited fast travel in Horizon Zero Dawn? All of that is explained here in our guide, below. You don’t have to have saved at them or even interacted with them, just have got close enough to have the text pop up on screen that it’s been discovered. From then on, you’ll be able to fast travel to that location, provided you have one other thing: a Fast Travel Pack. In the early stages of the game, these are found from certain vendors or, if you’re lucky maybe a random crate or slain human enemy. These Packs act as one-time-use consumables, meaning you’ll need to stock up, at a fair bit of expense to both your time and Metal Shards, if you want to fast travel often - and as the game progresses, you probably do. It’s obtained from a number of Traders around the world of Horizon, although for the record we sourced ours from the merchant just outside Meridian, by the big bridge leading into the city. How much does the Golden Fast Travel Pack cost? Well, it’s relatively cheap:
50 Metal Shards - obtained from all kinds of sources but, most commonly, from slain machines or selling items to merchants. 1 Fox Skin - somewhat harder, although far from impossible, to obtain. This drops randomly from wild Foxes you can hunt anywhere on the map. Forresty areas are generally the best, and we found one after only killing a handful, so it shouldn’t take you long. 10 Fatty Meat - this, again, is quite easy to find. It comes from any wild animal you can hunt, so you can normally pick some up from a quick trip into the wild where you can hunt Boar, Turkey, and Fox at your will.
