September’s State of Play saw the announcement of a remaster of the previous generation hit Horizon Zero Dawn. Thanks to it, we know that its current owners can get the upgrade for ten dollars. Sony hasn’t revealed that it has made the original version more expensive. Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition costs around $50 on the PlayStation Store, double the price tag of roughly $20-25. The title has also long been part of the PlayStation Hits collection, one of the main features of which is a price below the just-mentioned $25. It’s also important to know that you can’t buy any version other than the complete edition on the PS Store.
Sony’s Strategy for Preventing Bulk Upgrades
Of course, this is Sony’s treatment, so those interested in the remaster don’t buy the original version in bulk, which they would then upgrade to save money. The remaster will be offered at the same price. Of course, the sudden price change doesn’t apply to the physical versions of the game, which you can still easily find in stores for under $15. Nor is it a matter of the PC version. On Steam, the game sells for 50 euros (excluding various discounts) and has even been pulled from the Epic Store. Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered comes out on October 31 on PC and PlayStation 5. You can read our review of the original version in our article.
