Sony has announced that the sprawling open-world sci-fi epic Horizon Forbidden West will make its way to PCs "in early 2024," almost two years after it debuted on the PlayStation 4 and 5 and four years after its predecessor Horizon Zero Dawn reached PC gamers.
Titled Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition, the PC release will include both the base game and the recently released Burning Shores DLC, which takes place in a post-apocalyptic Southern California. The complete edition will also launch on PlayStation 5, but a bit earlier, on October 6 of this year.
The PC port will be handled by Nixxes, which previously did a mostly bang-up job porting Sony studio Insomniac Games' Spider-Man and Spider-Man: Miles Morales to PC. Sony hasn't announced any details about PC-specific features for the game, but some recent ports of first-party PlayStation games have included features like ultrawide monitor support, DLSS AI upscaling, and more. The Spider-Man games prominently featured ray tracing, but ray tracing was part of the PS5 feature set for those games already. Horizon Forbidden West does not have ray tracing on PS5, so its inclusion in the PC version is less certain.
