Horizon Forbidden West PC Version "Imminent" According to Leaker

[T0@st]

IMDA, Singapore's rating board, has evaluated a new version of Horizon Forbidden West—a website entry for an upcoming "Complete Edition" on the PlayStation 5 platform was uncovered late last week. This information was removed at a later date since, but several media outlets have preserved crucial details. Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition is M18 rated in that part of the world, thanks to gory content and sexual themes. IMDA's extended classification blurb implies that the base campaign as well as this year's Burning Shores DLC will be bundled together in a new package.

Dealabs leaker billbil-kun believes that a PC version is lined up for "imminent" release on Steam and the Epic Games Store—they cannot confirm an exact launch date, but it could arrive within a month based on potentially accurate data leaks. Sony tends to keep its flagship titles exclusive to PlayStation systems for 18 months—the base Horizon Forbidden West game arrived on PlayStation 4 and 5 last February...so the timing is about right for a converted edition to arrive PC-side. A State of Play presentation is scheduled for later today—billbil-kun recommends that folks check it out, given recent insights posted by Giant Bomb's Jeff Grubb.

This may be my first full price PC game purchase. But I'll still wait for reviews of the PC port first. No buggy messes, please.

The first one had a lot of bugs on pc but they fixed them pretty quickly.

oh yeah baby

Expect this to be much heavier than Starfield it looks 1000x better.

 

[Makaveli]

Hmm this means I will have to finish my active playthrough in the first game lol.

Looking forward to this.

It might just produce more FPS nonetheless... Horizon vanilla runs like a dream

 

[aktpu]

Nice, gimme gimme gimme

 

[TheoneandonlyMrK]

Please be true, no wait , a lie , it's out next week.

I look forward to it.

the first HZD to come to PC needed I think 7 patches... I would expect similar here, but you never know. I always wait for sales and patches, I probably will do so this time too, just nice to see its coming.

I doubt Nixxes was working on it because they just finished Ratchet and Clank so my optimism for the PC version is pretty low. I guess Bluepoint could be the studio which they are also pretty fantastic..... Crossing my fingers for a good PC port. It's fantastic on PS5.

The baseline is good, so I have high hopes.

 

[ilyon]

And it will have DLSS™...

 

[ZoneDymo]

Solid and one of the few games that actually looks like a game that fits 2023 where everything else looks like tis 5+ years old

 

[A Computer Guy]

I have been so waiting for this along with Dune, and Homeworld.

 

[the54thvoid]

As early as a month? Ooooohhhhh.

A title I will definitely buy. Loved Zero Dawn.

For a strictly single player game, HZD had a ton of replay and scavenger value for me. Worth the money for the hours played in my book.

It would be really interesting if they figured out a way to make a multiplayer mod for the game, where you could see other players in the open world and coop missions and trade gear and such, even if that meant doubling up on the baddies you have to battle.

...

HECK YEAH! H:ZD is one of my favorite game .... but i hate playing on PS (aside emulated or with an aftermarket controller, i don't remember the brand but i had one of the first made for the PS2 ... and if i want to re play on my PS2 i really would need to find it back ... or buy a new one if it still exist) thus i did not mind the wait till it got released to PC ...

my "prayer" for H:FW to take less time to be on PC have been heard

 

[Frick]

I quite liked the first one, but I still haven't finished it, because once I had gotten to a certain point it felt sort of meaningless to go on. Will definitely buy this tho.

I am in the same boat think I will go back to it and force myself to finish it.

Definitely worth it. Make sure you do all the hunting grounds the rewards at the end are more than worth it if you haven't already. The couldrons are also a no brainer. If you haven't completed them.

 

[Raiden85]

About damn time.

I mean the story. I cannot be assed to to all the hunting grounds. Filler content in a game that is already all filler content.

I wouldn't consider either filler content I would say why but it would be semi spoilerish lol.

 

[Sithaer]

Would be about damn time, loved the first game and it ran pretty well on my at the time 1600x/GTX 1070. 'Tho I did have to wait an extra year to play it so this much I can wait for this'

Ha! I think the only things I haven't done are the Hunting Grounds and the Power cells for the super armor. Done main quest and all the side quests and found all the various artifacts. I think I don't like the Hunting Grounds because they want you to fight a particular way. Yeah sorry, I gotta cheez and weasel hunting my way, lol.

And the Weapon Tutorials! I've done zero of those because same reason of course.
