Just seven years after it was released, and despite already being backwards compatible with a current-gen patch,Horizon Zero Dawnis getting a remaster.
As reported byTwisted Voxel, the game was revealed ahead of an official announcement onthe ESRB rating board, but it only tells us the name and that it will launch for PC and PS5.
Itcouldbe an enhanced version slated forthe PS5 Pro’s release on November 7to show off the console’s improved tech, but that’s purely speculative. We don’t know anything concrete yet.
The Remaster Has Been Rumoured For A While Now
It’s worth noting thatrumours have been swirling for a couple of yearsabout a revamped Horizon Zero Dawn. But there’s not much we can glean from the rumours either, since they claimed it was a remake, not a remaster, and likewise didn’t involve any key details. Until Sony reveals the remaster proper, all we can say is that a native, upgraded PS5 version is on the way.
Horizon Zero Dawn is also gettinga Lego game for Nintendo Switch, PC, and PS5.
But as rumours have been present for two years already, so too has the debate about whether this is even necessary. It’s become a trend for Sony to remaster and remake fairly modern games, from Marvel’s Spider-Man toThe Last of Us, all while fans have been asking for aBloodborne60fps update — one day, eh?
Wherever you land on the issue, it’s hard to deny that Zero Dawn still looks good and plays well.
