Hey there, fellow gamers! Grab your keyboards and controllers because Sony has just dropped an exciting announcement. Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition is coming to PC on March 21st, and pre-orders are now live! Prepare to embark on a thrilling adventure in this highly anticipated game.
A Powerhouse Combination: Horizon Forbidden West and Burning Shores DLC
Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition brings together the critically acclaimed PS5 hit, Horizon Forbidden West, with its grand DLC expansion, Burning Shores. It’s an absolute treat for gaming enthusiasts like us! But that’s not all – the game has been upgraded and enhanced to make the most of PC and GPU specific features.
Picture this: ultra-wide resolutions for 21:9 and 32:9 screens. And for those with a triple-monitor setup, get ready for a truly mind-blowing experience with a ludicrous sounding 48:9 aspect ratio. Talk about immersing yourself in the game world! Plus, say goodbye to frame rate limitations because Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition offers unlocked frame rates.
But wait, there’s more! You’ll have the freedom to customize graphics settings to your heart’s content. And for all you tech-savvy gamers out there, get ready for the major upscaling technologies like AMD FSR, Intel XeSS, and Nvidia DLSS 3. These advancements will not only enhance your visual experience but also support frame generation.
Fast loading times are a must in today’s gaming world, and Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition has got you covered. The port will make use of DirectStorage, ensuring you spend less time waiting and more time playing.
Now let’s talk controls. Whether you prefer the precision of a keyboard and mouse or the familiarity of a gamepad, the choice is yours. The game offers full remapping of controls, so you can play the way that feels most comfortable to you. And if you happen to have a DualSense controller, plug it in and experience the adaptive triggers and nuanced haptic feedback that will further immerse you in the game.
These features may seem like standard fare for PC games, but it’s always reassuring to see Sony checking off the boxes with their PC ports. We’re still waiting for details on system requirements and Steam Deck support, but since Horizon Forbidden West was a cross-gen game on PlayStation, we’re hopeful that Deck-heads out there – that’s the colloquial nickname, isn’t it? – will be able to enjoy the game on their preferred platform.

A Spectacular Sequel: Horizon Forbidden West
Now, let’s take a moment to appreciate the brilliance of Horizon Forbidden West. This fantastic sequel builds upon its predecessor, Horizon Zero Dawn, in almost every aspect. The story is exceptionally well written, taking you on a rollercoaster ride of air-punching highs and dark, horrific lows. It’s like watching a thrilling Jurassic Park movie, where the wow factor may be reduced, but the excitement remains.
The puzzles, crafting, and RPG elements in Horizon Forbidden West are top-notch. They seamlessly blend into the game, making it a truly immersive experience. And let’s not forget the exhilarating robo-beast smackdowns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Trust me, fellow gamers, this game is an absolute blast to play.
Don’t just take my word for it. In our review, Tuffcub said, “Horizon Forbidden West improves upon Zero Dawn in almost every aspect. The story is particularly well written and ebbs and flows from air-punching highs to dark, horrific lows. Like later Jurassic Park movies it suffers from the fact that we’ve already seen massive robotic dinosaurs on our TVs, the wow factor is reduced, and that the puzzles, crafting, and RPG elements could have been lifted from any number of games. Even so, it’s still a spectacular robo-beast smackdown and thoroughly enjoyable to play.” If that doesn’t convince you to dive into this incredible world, I don’t know what will.
So mark your calendars, gamers! Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will be available on PC starting March 21st. Pre-order now and get ready for an adventure like no other.
