PC Requirements for Horizon Forbidden West Revealed

The PC requirements for Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition have been revealed by developers Guerrilla Games and Nixxes. The game, which is set to release on Steam and the Epic Games Store on March 21, will require at least 150 GB of SSD space. Additionally, PC players will have the freedom to choose from a range of graphic presets that cater to various hardware capabilities, from portable setups to high-end PCs. The game includes adjustable settings for textures, shadows, water, terrain, and other details. In-game effects like lens flare, bloom, and vignette can also be toggled on or off. The Complete Edition for PS5 was released last October and includes the main game, the Burning Shores expansion, a digital artbook and soundtrack, the first volume of a digital comic, new poses and face paints for photo mode, and extra in-game items such as the Nora Thunder Elite outfit. Horizon Forbidden West received high praise for its improvements over its predecessor, Horizon Zero Dawn, and while its expansion, Burning Shores, was criticized for not offering enough new content, it sets the stage for Horizon 3.
