Horizon Forbidden West Releases New PC Update
A new update patch has just been released for the PC version of Horizon Forbidden West that corrects some problems players have been having with the Nvidia Reflex On+Boost feature, among other things. The second Horizon game launched on PlayStation consoles back in 2022, earning mainly positive reviews for its stunning visuals and impressive vocal performances, even if some found the story to be lacking. Last month, Horizon Forbidden West became one of the latest Sony-published titles to make the jump to PC courtesy of Nixxes Software, the developer behind ports like Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart and the upcoming Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut.
While its original PlayStation release was greatly overshadowed by Elden Ring, Horizon Forbidden West has seen renewed success after launching on PC on March 21, managing to land on the US market's top 10 best-selling video games in less than a week. Much of the praise stems from Horizon Forbidden West’s lush, futuristic game world, which looks even better than it did on the PS5 thanks to PC-exclusive features like Nvidia DLSS 3 upscaling and image-enhancing Nvidia DLAA. Refinements have already been made thanks to updates like Patch 1.2, which was released earlier this month and improved the game’s weapon wheel mechanic while using a mouse and keyboard.
Nixxes Software has just released another update patch for Horizon Forbidden Weston PC, correcting a variety of technical issues. According to the patch notes, Update 1.3.55.0 resolved an issue many players were having with regressed performance with Nvidia Reflex On+Boost enabled. Changes were also made to Mouse and Keyboard bindings for actions such as Navigation Assist in Focus Mode, Intel XeSS has been updated to version 1.3 with improved image quality with XeSS Native AA option, and an Interface Text Size option has been added to the General Settings menu.
