Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition lands on PC soon on March 21st, with Nixxes once again handling the porting of this previously PlayStation exclusive. The system requirements are also now up so we can see what to expect.
Interestingly, they clearly mentioned in the post on Steam that they've included various graphics presets to ensure the game runs on "a wide variety of PC hardware, including portable gaming devices". So, hopefully, this means it will actually run on Steam Deck. Although we're probably looking at 30FPS there. You'll want to ensure you've got plenty of space free too - at 150GB it's quite a big one. The previous game in the series did have quite a few rough spots on Steam Deck though.

As long as Valve get any fixes needed in Proton, at least Desktop Linux PC players shouldn't have much trouble with that. And with Proton 9.0 currently in progress hopefully it will be in a good state.
Plenty of PC features coming with it like ultrawide support, NVIDIA DLSS 3, AMD FSR and Intel XeSS.

Is this one you'll be picking up?

This and then Ghost of Tsushima in the span of less than two months, my wallet is already crying
Also 150GB? When it finishes downloading they will have the next game released already.
I fear the sequel may have added features on top that break that simplicity, but if they kept most of the formula intact, I guess it should not ruin the overall experience. And the visuals surely do look nice again!

Quoting: kaiman[...]I rather liked how simple and streamlined it was.This! I'm not a fan of busywork in modern grindfests, too.
