Nixxes has released the first title update for the PC version of Horizon: Forbidden West, and shared its full patch notes. According to the devs, this update includes crash fixes, various bug fixes, and improvements based on player feedback.
Going into more details, Patch 1.0.43.0 enables DLSS 3 Frame Generation in cutscenes and while UI screens such as the weapon wheel are displayed. As such, owners of the RTX40 series GPUs should be getting an even better experience now.
This update fixes a problem where the mouse cursor wasn’t quite in the right place on the map if your screen wasn’t set to 1920×1080. It also stops a glitch where more than one Quest category could be highlighted at once. And now, when you’re using a controller in Photo Mode, the game shows the right button prompt for hiding the UI.
Owners of HDR monitors and TVs will be happy to now that the HDR Max Luminance slider is now functioning correctly. Thus, you won’t have to rely anymore on mods in order to enjoy the game in HDR.
Nixxes has also implemented a QoL improvement. The game will now be able to save when the Documents folder is rerouted to the root of a drive instead of a folder.
Like always, Steam will download this update the next time you launch its client. Below you can also find its complete changelog. Oh, and make sure to read our PC Performance Analysis.
