PlayStation has become a household name on the PC platform. With titles like Marvel’s Spider-Man and God of War, the gaming giant has ensured PC players continue to anticipate its next additions to the platform.

While recent ports have been underwhelming on Steam, PlayStation has already confirmed its intentions to continue the trend of PC ports. Following the recent release of Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, the gaming giant appears to be gearing up for another release.

According to a reliable leaker, Horizon Forbidden West is the next PC port from PlayStation.

Why it matters: The Horizon franchise has become a massive success for PlayStation. Horizon Forbidden West has already sold over 8 million units across PS4 and PS5, making it a suitable candidate for a PC release.

The information comes from Billbil-kun, a reliable industry insider known for his accurate leaks about PlayStation, Xbox, and more. As expected, the game will be available on Steam and Epic Games Store.

Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition was recently rated for the PS5. This version includes the game and the DLC, leading to one complete package for those who have yet to try Aloy’s latest adventure.

However, the rating appears to have been pointing at the PC release. In terms of the release window, the report was unable to confirm an exact date, but Billbil-kun estimates the game should be released within a month from now.

Various industry insiders have claimed that a PlayStation State of Play could be hosted this week, making it the perfect occasion for the PC port’s announcement.

This is an exciting announcement for PC gamers who enjoyed Aloy’s first adventure on the platform. Billbil-kun was among the first to leak the last PlayStation PC port before the official announcement, leading to little doubt about the validity of the report.

Horizon Forbidden West is considered one of the most technically impressive first-party PlayStation games.

The game looks and plays great on the PS4, but it also uses the extra horsepower of the PS5 for a superior version. If this trend continues, the PC port may prove to be the best version of Horizon Forbidden West.
