Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition Set to Release on PC on March 21, Pre-Orders Open
“The PC version of Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will feature unlocked framerates, customizable graphics settings, and support for Nvidia DLSS 3.
Horizon Forbidden West, the sprawling action-adventure title from Guerilla Games, is finally getting a PC port. PlayStation announced last week that the Complete Edition of the sci-fi open-world epic, which includes the Burning Shores expansion from 2023, will arrive on PC on March 21. The PC port will be helmed by Nixxes Software, the Sony-owned studio that has previously worked on PC ports for first-party PlayStation titles like Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered and Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. The Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition PC port comes two years after the main game’ initial release on the PS4 and the PS5 in 2022, keeping in line with Sony’s PC release timeline for its exclusive games.
In a PlayStation blog published January 25, Nixxes Software announced PC features and pre-order details for Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition. The game will come with unlocked framerates, a range of customisable graphics settings and support for Nvidia DLSS 3 upscaling and frame generation, AMD FSR and Intel XeSS for enhanced performance. “For players with high-end hardware and extra headroom, image-enhancing NVIDIA DLAA is also available. The game leverages DirectStorage for quick loading times on PC,” the blog added.
Additionally, Horizon Forbidden West on PC will support ultra-wide resolutions, including 21:9 ultra-wide, 32:9 super ultra-wide and —for ultra-wide overkill — 48:9 resolutions with compatibility for triple-monitor setups. As always, fully customisable mouse and keyboard controls will be supported, in addition to controllers. The PlayStation DualSense controller will get the added benefit of adaptive triggers and haptic feedback for immersive gameplay.
The PC version of Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will include bonus content, such as additional outfits, weapons, and in-game resource packs. Nixxes, the studio handling the PC port, will reveal system requirements for the game in the coming weeks.
Pre-orders for the PC version are now available on Steam and Epic Games Store, priced at Rs. 3,999. Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition originally launched on October 6, 2023, for the PS5. In May of the same year, developer Guerilla Games announced that the game had sold 8.4 million copies as of April 16, across the PS5 and PS4 platforms.
