Sony is releasing a remastered version of Horizon Zero Dawn. The company announced the news during its State of Play event on Tuesday and says the game will be available on PlayStation 5 and PC starting October 31st with “stunning new visuals and enhanced features.”
Rumors about a potential Horizon Zero Dawn remaster first emerged in 2022, but several news outlets spotted an ESRB rating for the remaster on the PS5 and PC just last week.
Launched in 2017, Horizon Zero Dawn puts you in control of Aloy, a hunter who lives in a postapocalyptic world overrun by mechanical creatures. It tasks you with taking down enemies using your bow, spear, and a little bit of stealth.
Sony brought Horizon Zero Dawn to PC in 2020 and later released an update for the PS5 in 2021 that unlocks 60 frames per second. The remaster will probably look even better on the PS5 Pro, which launches in November. If you have the game already, you can upgrade to the remastered version for $9.99.
