Developers Guerrilla Games and Nixxies Software have released the system requirements for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered on PC, which is scheduled for release on October 31st. The new version of the game, which was already a hit on PlayStation, promises a robust visual upgrade, similar to that of Horizon Forbidden West , and will be available for both PC and PlayStation 5.

The remaster brings the graphics up to current industry standards, and the minimum and recommended requirements indicate that the game should run well on mid-range computers. To run at 1440p and 60fps, an RTX 3070 graphics card is recommended, while to run at 1080p, an RTX 3060 is sufficient. The required storage is 135 GB, and the required RAM is 16 GB, even on the most basic configurations.

Minimum requirements for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered on PC

For those who want to run the game with minimum graphics settings and acceptable performance, the Very Low requires an Intel Core i3-8100 or AMD Ryzen 3 1300X processor, as well as a GTX 1650 graphics card. The game will run at 720p and 30fps, but will still maintain the essential aspects of the experience, with reduced graphics and lower hardware consumption.

Players with more modest PC configurations will need at least 135 GB of storage and 16 GB of RAM. It's important to note that the game is optimized for Windows 10 (version 1909 or higher), which also applies to those using the recommended configuration.

Recommended settings for a 1080p experience

For players looking to enjoy Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered in 1080p at 60fps, mid-range settings are sufficient. The game recommends a Ryzen 5 3600 or Intel Core i5-8600 processor paired with an RTX 3060 or Radeon RX 5700 graphics card. These settings already ensure a rich visual experience, maintaining the fluidity many players seek from Full HD monitors.

This option aims to reach a wider audience, as monitors with this resolution are still widely used in Brazil. The improved graphic quality makes the game even more immersive, without requiring advanced hardware configurations.

4K graphics and high performance

Those looking to play at higher resolutions, like 1440p or 4K, will need a more robust setup. To run the game at 1440p at 60fps or 4K at 30fps, an RTX 3070 or AMD Radeon RX 6800 graphics card is recommended. Additionally, you'll need an Intel Core i7-9700 or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X processor.

For the ultimate experience, with the graphics preset at Very High , the game will require even more hardware. An RTX 4080 graphics card and an Intel Core i7-11700 processor deliver 4K resolution at 60fps. This configuration is designed for players seeking maximum performance and graphics quality, taking advantage of the full potential of the remaster.
