As you can see, there are some great options on offer: unlocked frame rates, customizable graphics settings, and ultra-wide resolution support are just a few enhancements PC gamers can lord over console players. Those who are wondering about the dreaded system requirements, however, will need to await details in the coming weeks.

It’s great to see Sony jump on the PC bandwagon with a variety of games, like God of War and Returnal. Hopefully, Horizon Forbidden West will avoid the bugs Horizon Zero Dawn had when it launched and provide a new experience for eager gamers to try out.
