PayPalWhile it really didn't need it, October 31 will give us Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered as announced during Sony's State of Play. Yes really, it's happening, it's a real thing.
Hold on a minute, it's how old? No, it can't be. How is it 7 years since the original release? Is time speeding up as I get older or what?
The current version of the game works well on Desktop Linux with Proton, and is Steam Deck Verified. However, the new Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered might come with some issues, as Sony confirmed in their blog post it will have the PlayStation Overlay, which is what completely breaks online play for Ghost of Tsushima DIRECTOR'S CUT.
Hopefully it's not forced, and perhaps it will have an opt-out for Steam Deck like God of War Ragnarök, which means Desktop Linux users may need the launch option.
Here's the trailer anyway:
Direct Link
Sony say it will have "over 10 hours of re-recorded conversation, mocap and countless graphical improvements that bring the game to the same visual fidelity as its critically acclaimed sequel Horizon Forbidden West". You will also see various upgrades to characters that brings "them in line with current generation advances in character models and rendering"
For the PC version there will be support for NVIDIA DLSS 3 and AMD FSR 3.1 with frame generation, along with various accessibility features that were first introduced in Horizon Forbidden West.
The new edition will be a $9.99 upgrade for existing owners on PC.

Quoting: StellaWhat is there to remaster? [...]Well, it would be nice if they'd remove the phone-home-feature and their atrocious data collecting policy. Not getting my hopes up though...
Quoting: SakuretsuA totally unnecessary Remaster + mandatory PSN account linking = No, thanks.
That's how I feel. At first I thought the rumors of this remaster were just satire, like the studio was making fun of the entire industry with all the remasters everywhere. But nope. Real life.
Also hilarious because I guess this means they have absolutely no other constructive or original ideas coming anytime soon? I guess after Concord lost them a nice cool $200 mil, they have to try and scrape a few pennies out of a remaster of a game that needs no remaster.
