Sony and Nixxes Software have shared the official PC system requirements for Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition. In addition, NVIDIA revealed that the game will support DLSS 3 Frame Generation at launch.
PC gamers will at least need an Intel Core i3-8100 or AMD Ryzen 3 1300X with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 or AMD Radeon RX 5500XT. The game will also require 150GB of free disk space.
For running the game at 1080p/Medium Settings with 60fps, PC gamers will need an Intel Core i5-8600 or AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 or AMD Radeon RX 5700.
For 1440p/60fps or 4K/30fps on High Settings, Nixxes recommends using an Intel Core i7-9700 or AMD Ryzen 7 3700X with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 or AMD Radeon RX 6800.
Finally, for the best PC gaming experience at 4K/Very High Settings with 60fps, the developers suggest using an Intel Core i7-11700 or AMD Ryzen 7 5700X with 16GB of RAM and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 or AMD Radeon RX 7900XT.
Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition is coming to PC on March 21st. For those wondering, the game will not support any Ray Tracing effects. And yes, alongside DLSS 3, the game will support FSR 3.0 (as well as XeSS).
PC players will be able to fully customize their mouse and keyboard controls. And, like all of the Sony games, it will support DirectStorage. Horizon Forbidden West on PC will also offer unlocked framerates and customizable graphics settings.
