Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition, the First Two-Disc PS5 Game, Set to Launch in October
PlayStation 5 owners are in for a treat as Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition prepares to hit the shelves. This highly anticipated game, slated for release on Friday, October 6, is making waves as the first two-disc PS5 game. With a total size of 121GB, the base game, accompanied by its Burning Shores expansion and additional digital content, will be available on the two discs included in the physical edition. Having beaten Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth to the punch, Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition is a major victory for console owners who value the convenience of physical media and the ability to play games without the requirement of constant internet connectivity.
What’s Included in Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition
Priced at $59.99 (approximately Rs. 4,999), the hefty Complete Edition of Horizon Forbidden West offers players an incredible array of bonus content. Alongside the acclaimed 2022 RPG itself, the package includes a Horizon Forbidden West digital artbook, a digital soundtrack, Horizon Zero Dawn Vol. 1: The Sunhawk digital comic book, additional poses and makeup options for the photo mode, and unlockable outfits attainable through in-game progression.
Horizon Forbidden West immerses players in the captivating adventures of Aloy, a young huntress embarking on a post-apocalyptic quest to safeguard humanity from a devastating red blight. The Burning Shores expansion, released in April, transforms the city of Los Angeles into a volcanic archipelago, introducing new machines for players to hunt and conquer.
Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition Heading to PC in 2024
Exciting news awaits PC gamers as Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition is confirmed to be making its way to PC in early 2024. Nixxes Software, renowned for their exceptional work in bringing Spider-Man Remastered to PC, has been entrusted with the task of porting the game. PC players can look forward to enjoying all the bonus content offered in the PS5 version of the game. While specific details about PC-exclusive features are yet to be disclosed, it is reasonable to anticipate keyboard and mouse compatibility, ray-tracing support, Nvidia’s DLSS, AMD’s FSR-based upscaling technology, and ultra-wide display optimization for the game’s stunning vistas. Additionally, players can experience haptic feedback when using the PS5 DualSense controller on a wired connection.
This move aligns with PlayStation’s commitment, as articulated by CEO Jim Ryan, to bring PS exclusives to PC two or three years after their initial release. It remains to be seen whether this strategy will change following Ryan’s retirement in March of next year. In May, developer Guerrilla Games delighted fans with the announcement that Horizon Forbidden West had already sold a staggering 8.4 million copies across both PS4 and PS5 platforms. The overall sales of the franchise, which includes the prequel Horizon Zero Dawn, its Frozen Wilds DLC, and the PS VR2 game, amounted to an impressive 32.7 million units. These numbers, coupled with the confirmation of a sequel, serve as a testament to the enduring popularity and success of Aloy’s adventures.
