What New Features Are Available for Horizon Forbidden West on PC?
Seeing that this is coming to PC, you’re probably wondering what new features it comes with to support the platform. Lucky you, PlayStation has also revealed all that, which you can read and watch below.

Seeing that Horizon Forbidden West is perhaps one of the most graphically demanding games, you may be wondering what kind of PC hardware you’ll need to run this beast. Sadly, the PC requirements for Horizon Forbidden West have yet to be announced, but it should be soon seeing as the release isn’t far off!
With Nixxes Software leading the port, we expect this to play very smoothly on PC. However, even with their level of optimization, assume you’ll need a monster set-up to run everything on Ultra.
Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will be arriving on PC on March 21.
