Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered – Announce Trailer

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered will contain over ten hours of re-recorded audio and motion capture, with visual upgrades bringing up its aesthetic fidelity on par with the sequel Horizon Forbidden West.

The PS5 version will feature full haptic feedback and adaptive trigger support for DualSense controllers. Also new with the remaster are accessibility features such as remappable controls, assist toggles, and sound cues and haptic controller feedback to locate items.

Meanwhile, the PC version will provide unique features, including support for ultrawide resolutions and frame-rate generation programs such as NVIDIA DLSS 3 and AMD FSR 3.1. Essentially, it will both look and play as smoothly as it can to players with the PC rigs to support it.

Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered will retail for $49.99 USD and contain both the base game and DLC expansion The Frozen Wilds. Those who own the original versions of Horizon Zero Dawn and/or Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition (digitally or on disc) can upgrade to the digital version of the remaster for $9.99.

[Editor’s Note: If you snagged Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition as part of Sony’s Play at Home campaign during the pandemic, you are also eligible for the upgrade.]

Old save data for Horizon Zero Dawn will also work with the remaster, allowing players to pick up exactly where they left off. Check out the official synopsis of the game’s PC port below for more information.
