“Over seven years ago, we released Horizon Zero Dawn into the wilds. Players got to meet Aloy, our leading hero, thrust into a journey of (self-)discovery in a mysterious, far-future world ravaged by deadly machines,” Studio Director and Studio Art and Animation Director at Guerrilla Jan-Bart van Beek wrote in a PlayStation Blog post about the upcoming title.
“It was also the beginning of a thriving community of cosplayers, virtual photographers, fan artists, and content creators who inspire us to this day with their incredible creations. Horizon Zero Dawn is near and dear to many fans, as well as to everyone at Guerrilla.
And that community has not stopped growing. Each year, many millions more pick up Horizon Zero Dawn for the first time. But 7 years is a long time in the world of computer graphics; technology improves. As time moved on, we really wished that new players who join Aloy on her origin story can do it with a version that is worthy of their PS5 or compatible PC. And so, we are thrilled to announce that the game has been remastered by our talented friends at Nixxes.”
Horizon Zero Dawn was originally released in February 2017 as a PlayStation 4 exclusive before coming to PC in 2020. The sequel, Horizon Forbidden West, was released on February 18, 2022 for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. It was ported to PC in March 2024.
