Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster

Horizon Zero Dawn is making its highly anticipated return with a remastered edition available on both PlayStation 5 and PC, releasing on October 31. This new version aims to elevate the original game with advanced graphics that rival those of its sequel, Horizon Forbidden West. In addition to the visual enhancements, the remaster includes more than 10 hours of newly recorded motion capture, offering an enriched experience as players follow the journey of Aloy, the resourceful huntress of the Nora tribe.

Originally launched in 2017 for the PlayStation 4 and later in 2020 for PC, Horizon Zero Dawn quickly garnered a strong fan base with its engaging narrative set in a post-apocalyptic world. Gamers eagerly uncovered the mysteries of a lost civilization while fighting to protect the new world. The franchise expanded with Horizon Forbidden West in 2022, and with a potential third installment on the horizon, the remaster offers fans an opportunity to revisit or experience for the first time the series‘ roots with updated technology.

Horizon Zero Dawn Enhanced Edition for PS5 and PC

The enhanced edition of Horizon Zero Dawn is set to arrive with a host of new features that improve upon the original experience. Scheduled for a global release on October 31, this remaster will showcase a refined visual presentation, aligning with the high-quality graphics seen in Horizon Forbidden West. This includes over ten hours of newly recorded conversational motion capture, elevating the immersion and emotional depth of character interactions.

Players will appreciate the inclusion of advanced accessibility features, which mirror those found in Horizon Forbidden West. These enhancements are designed to make the game more inclusive, featuring options such as remappable controls, haptic feedback, and various assist toggles.

For those who have already embarked on Aloy’s journey in the original game, the transition to the remastered version is seamless. The new version supports save game compatibility, allowing players to resume their progress without starting over. Existing owners of Horizon Zero Dawn can opt for a digital upgrade at a cost-efficient price of $10, accessible via the PlayStation Store, Epic Games Store, or Steam. A simple disc insertion into the PlayStation 5 also facilitates this upgrade for players with a physical copy.

The full game is available for new players at $50, offering an enticing entry point into the world of Horizon. Moreover, Horizon Zero Dawn Enhanced Edition will be compatible with the PlayStation 5 Pro beginning November 7, providing an enriched experience for users with this version of the console.

In addition to the remaster, fans can anticipate the launch of LEGO Horizon Adventures on November 14, a playful extension of the beloved series. Together, these releases serve as an exciting precursor to the upcoming Horizon 3, promising to captivate both veteran and new players.
