One of the best games on the PS4 currently, is finally making the hop to PC on August 7. Just in time for me to buy it and have a second platform to ignore it, just like I’ve done with my current black box for the last couple of…years. WAIT TRACY PUT DOWN THE KNIFE I SWEAR I’LL PLAY IT THIS TIME! Office blood feuds aside, Horizon: Zero Dawn was a stunner a couple of years ago on PlayStation 4, and it’s bound to be a proper work of gawking beauty when it does arrive on the most Liverpool FC of platforms:
Undeniably the best, but I wish your fanbases would stop gloating about it because much like your opinion on the Joe Rogan podcast I simply do not give a crap. In a new trailer, developer Guerrilla games detailed what features PC players can expect to support. The trailer happens to be embedded below, along with the hottest of takes on what all these fancy terms actually mean:
Ultra-wide support
Which is more than I can say fer yer mum, HEYOH!
Unlocked frame-rates
Raters gonna rate because they’re anus.
Dynamic foliage
It’s like regular grass…but dynamic!
Graphical customisation
Man this game is going to look amazing at 320 x 280 resolution with all the jaggies on the edges.
Improved reflections
Just like that bastard in my mirror who copies everything I do, you’ll be able to reflect on your own annoying dopplegangers when you want to see if your clothing looks decent.
Controller options
Oooh Remedy Entertainment is not going to be happy about this.
Benchmarking tool
I don’t see how anything else can beat a pocket knife for when you need to deface public property, but let’s see if Guerrilla can surprise me.
And here’s what you’ll need to run the game!
Minimum settings:
- Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
- OS: Windows 10 64-bits
- Processor: Intel Core i5-2500K@3.3GHz or AMD FX 6300@3.5GHz
- Memory: 8 GB RAM
- Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 (3 GB) or AMD Radeon R9 290 (4GB)
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: 100 GB available space
Recommended settings:
- Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
- OS: Windows 10 64-bits
- Processor: Intel Core i7-4770K@3.5GHz or Ryzen 5 1500X@3.5GHz
- Memory: 16 GB RAM
- Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 (6 GB) or AMD Radeon RX 580 (8GB)
- DirectX: Version 12
- Storage: 100 GB available space
Just a mere month to go, until Horizon: Zero Dawn makes a splash on PC via Steam (Where it was cheaper locally until VPN-abusing users apparently drove the price up) and the Epic Games Store. I’m actually in the process of building a gaming PC right now (which at this point is the bit where I cry about the hardware I can’t have), so I’m genuinely keen to get my hands on the game come launch day just so that I have my benchmark for future hardware installed.
Oh no, it’s too late. I’m becoming one of them.

PC gamers who haven’t experienced this on PS4 will not be disappointed. It’s a gorgeous game and I loved playing it on PS4.

Yeah EGS is now 54% of the Steam price, coming in at R373 at current exchange rates. R429 if that still needs VAT applied. I know where I’ll be buying it.

They might fix that as well, the steam price was R280 when it popped up and yesterday it got fixed to R680.
So for safety reasons I would buy it sooner than later 😛

Same same, UIF also not paying out can get in the sea.

Actually, them being in the sea would explain why they’ve done bugger-all so far.

100 GB of storage… when did this start becoming the norm. Games were like 12GB just the other day and that was called massive.

Will wait for a Steam sale, in no rush to get this.

Already on the wishlist. Will wait for the Summer sale however. Too many new games to get through. Still waiting for MHW:Iceborne to drop a bit in price.

This game is the business, and it’s really well written too, been a long time for me since I’ve played as a main character in game who makes decisions that just make sense.

Storage….. What is storage in today’s age worth XD We thought 500GB of space was a lot to have 3 years ago… Boy oh boy were we wrong.
