Sony’s Horizon Zero Dawn remaster may cost $20 more than we thought


If you thought you’d buy a new copy of Horizon Zero Dawn on Sony’s digital storefront for a smooth $20 and just pay an extra $10 for the new remastered version when it arrives on October 31st, think again. Sony has quietly doubled the price of Horizon Zero Dawn: Complete Edition on the PlayStation Store.
While Sony has long sold the game for $20 online — as far back as 2018, it seems — it upped that price to $40 on September 25th, just one day after announcing the new remastered game. The changes were spotted by @GamePittReviews.
While those of us with an existing copy can upgrade for $10 — regardless of whether your copy is disc or digital, PlayStation or PC — new players will have to pay a full $50 for the remastered version if they want it digitally. Sony isn’t exactly trying to hide that: “For new fans, the game can be purchased for $49.99 on PlayStation Store, Steam, or Epic Game Store,” its original blog post reads.
You can still pay quite a lot less, of course, by tracking down an old disc copy of the game or perhaps a PC key. Sony explicitly states that even the original PS4 disc copy of Horizon Zero Dawn will work as you leave it in the drive while you’re playing — assuming you’ve got a PlayStation with a disc drive, that is.
The new remaster promises “stunning new visuals and enhanced features,” and you can see more in the announcement trailer below.
