Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will finally be available on PC starting March 21. Those looking forward to experiencing this gem of a game should make sure their PC is up to snuff. Nixxes and Guerrilla have provided a detailed overview of the recommended specifications, based on the game’s available presets. The port is also designed to work on portable gaming devices, such as the Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, and the newest MSI Claw.
Of course, players will be able to tweak settings and visuals to their own preferences. Options in the launcher and the game menus include individual quality settings for textures, level of detail, shadows, water, terrain, and more. Sliders will also be available to adjust the field of view, as well as visual effects like motion blur and film grain. Players will also find toggles to customize full screen effects like radial blur, lens flares, bloom, and vignette.
Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition bundles the base game with the Burning Shores expansion (review) and bonus content, including in-game items, outfits, a digital soundtrack, a digital artbook, and the Sunhawk digital comic book.
