PlayStation raises Horizon Zero Dawn’s PS4 price following remaster upgrade annoucement

. This has been the case for over two years.

Now, the game’s price has been increased to $39.99/ £34.99.

The reason for the price increase is almost certainly to ensure that players don’t get Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered for cheaper than full price by buying the PS4 version on ***** and upgrading it.

The remaster, which VGC reported on in 2022, will come to both PC and PlayStation 5 on October 31st.

The game will be available for $49.99 on PS5, Steam and the Epic Game Store, while owners of the original game can upgrade to the remaster for $9.99.

As such, the decision to change the PS4 version’s price back to $39.99 means anyone choosing to buy that and upgrade will pay a total of $49.98, instead of $29.98.

. “But seven years is a long time in the world of computer graphics – technology improves.

“As time moved on, we really wished that new players who join Aloy on her origin story can do it with a version that is worthy of their PS5 or compatible PC. And so, we are thrilled to announce that the game has been remastered by our talented friends at Nixxes.”
