Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition has been announced for PS5 and PC

The title is coming to console next week and will make its PC debut in 2024

Sony has announced Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition for PlayStation 5 and PC.

Set for release on console on October 6 and on PC in early 2024, the title will include the base game, its Burning Shores expansion, and digital bonuses including a soundtrack, artbook, comic book and in-game items.

Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition will cost $59.99 / €69.99 / ¥7,980.

Guerrilla Games said the PC version is being developed in partnership with fellow Sony studio Nixxes Software. It will be available on Steam and Epic Games Store.

Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition was leaked earlier this month by Singapore’s game classification board, and a reliable dataminer subsequently claimed the title would be coming to PC.

Horizon Forbidden West was released for PS4 and PS5 in February 2022 and had sold 8.4 million copies by the middle of April 2023, according to developer Guerrilla.

It sees series protagonist Aloy racing to save the planet’s crumbling biosphere before vicious storms and a mysterious plant disease ravage humanity.

The Burning Shores expansion, which wasn’t released for PS4, sees machine hunter Aloy travel to the ruins of Los Angeles in order to track down information about the ancient progenitor race that she battled in the main game.

Guerrilla is currently working on an online project set in the Horizon universe and has also promised more “epic solo adventures” starring Aloy.

I hope it gets a GOG release in the future, like the previous one.

It’s nice to see that the game is finally complete 19 months after launch ✌🏻

  Someone just discovered the concept of bundling a game and its DLC together and re-releasing it as if that hasn’t been a thing for 2 generations straight lol
  Y’all want to be comedians and trolls because it’s not a game on your plastic box and yet you’re so bad at it

    …or MAYBE it’s just a very unfortunate name choice ?!
    They could have labelled it Gold / Enhanced / Ultimate Edition or Director’s Cut or whatever.
    “Complete edition” implies it was incomplete before.

      This is FAR from the first re-release that has that kind of naming convention, nor is it the first release of this nature. The Witcher 3, Nioh and Nioh 2, Watch Dogs, the first Horizon game. Not to mention similar monikers like ‘Game of the Year Edition’ (Batman Arkham City, Marvel’s Spider-Man, Shadow of Mordor, Hitman 2016, every Bethesda RPG since Morrowind etc.) or ‘Definitive Edition’ (modern Tomb Raider, Dishonored, Metal Gear Solid V, Sleeping Dogs etc.)
      This isn’t new. You’re blowing up a problem that doesn’t exist lol

  Are you seriously complaining about a complete edition?
  Besides does this also mean that Starfield is currently an incomplete package because the DLC isn’t out yet?

    Marketing teams that know what they’re doing would call it “complete edition” but Gold / Enhanced / Ultimate Edition or Director’s Cut or whatever.
    What was Horizon Forbidden West before it’s “Complete Edition” ? Obviously “incomplete”.
    Starfield won’t sell a “complete edition” and it’s premium edition is already available for purchase.

      Starfield will 100% get this treatment after Shattered Space is out. Every Bethesda RPG since Morrowind has always gotten a Game of the Year Edition a year later that has all the DLC on the disc/download, especially since they release at least 3 if not more single-player DLC chapters after launch for all of them. Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout 3, Skyrim and Fallout 4 ALL got GotY Editions, and Skyrim also got the additional Special and Anniversary Editions that similarly bundled all the DLC packs with extra stuff like Creation Club add-ons and visual enhancements for later hardware. It’s an easy sell to people who either never got the game during launch period, or purposely waited until the expansions were complete. This is a Bethesda staple. I literally own all of these versions on Steam lol

        Me too. That’s how I bought FO3, Skyrim, FONV and FO4. It’s the best way to do it for me.

        Can’t see Shattered Space being the only DLC they plan on putting out for it.

    For me, any game isn’t “complete” or “of value” to me until the GOTY style version is out, with all dlc, unofficial mods, bugs fixed, game faqs/guides ready, etc and it’s on sale.
    Anything before that is an overpriced beta IMO.
    So far, gaming this way has saved me a lot of money, disappointment and stress. I don’t need to worry too much about bugs, I have lots more content to experience as soon as I’ve bought the game and I can avoid games that haven’t stood the test of time.

Glad I held off. Had a feeling this was happening and getting Zero Dawn Complete for free at the start of COVID was a damn nice deal, so I’ll probably get this soon. Not in October though, that’s Spider-Man month for me

Only fair bundling them together… seeing as the DLC gives you the huge boss battle (the one they teased at the end of the original) which feels like more of a true end to the game.
