Horizon Forbidden West was ported to PC last week and took the opportunity to give us a masterful graphical slap in the face. This is even more evident in 4K with full graphics settings and some additions.
Like every weekend, Digital Dreams offers us the opportunity to escape from everyday life and pamper our eyes. This time the famous YouTube channel has decided to take us to the Forbidden West with the magnificent PC version of Horizon Forbidden West. And we are clearly not disappointed with the trip.
The PC version of Horizon Forbidden West in top graphical form
Horizon Forbidden West is already great on PS5 and has clearly taken advantage of the PC version to show itself in its most majestic glory. Nixxes, the studio responsible for porting Sony exclusives, shows us once again the quality of their work. Unlike Zero Dawn, the sequel benefits from very solid optimization. Whoever says that PC version also means pushed graphics settings if you have a sufficiently equipped computer.
The travel agency Digital Dreams therefore presents us the game in all its immense beauty and completely fluidly. With maximum graphic details, NVIDIA technologies such as Ray Tracing and DLAA and the in-house Beyond All Limits ReShade, the game is a pure feast for the eyes. To enjoy it even more, the video below has been rendered in 4K for absolute clarity. That’s why we let you feast your eyes on the truly magnificent landscapes of the Forbidden West (we saw you coming with Aloy, don’t lie).
FPS hunting requires a monstrous machine
Of course, achieving such a result requires a real war machine. In the description of the video, Digital Dreams describes the very powerful configuration used in this context. You will therefore have to count on an RTX 4090 graphics card, a Ryzen 9 7950x processor and 32 GB of DDR5 RAM at 6000 MHz. For more fluidity, a fast SSD like the Samsung 970 Evo is mandatory.
It will not require such large sums of money as for the implementation of the Zero Dawn project, but still. Regardless, this video shows us by example that Horizon Forbidden West can pride itself on being one of the most beautiful games of all time.
