Here are the specific details in regards to the improvements that have been made for the Horizon Zero Dawn PS5 Upgrade. It features HDR support with a checkerboard 4k resolution at 60fps. It should smoothly hit these targets with the extra power that is present.

This update was provided to the game that bumped up the frame rate with an upgrade from 30fps to 60fps after the release of the console to get the most out of the game. It is worth noting that the games will be given the full power of the Playstation 5 console to improve past experiences.

Those are the key details that are present. This game is not upgraded on the platform, meaning it wasn’t specifically adjusted for the platform and instead received these upgrades through either inheriting it from the previous generation or automatically. A video showcasing this is found below, alongside a photo representing the game.


Description/Synopsis
Follow Aloy as she attempts to figure out what’s happened to the world and her unique origins. Explore a massive, gorgeous world that’s filled with monstrous machine animals. You’ll venture deep into the remnants of lost civilizations in an attempt to figure out what’s going wrong with everything on the surface. It will be filled with challenges, unique story missions to work through and a deep sense of wonder. Many side objectives are present, alongside some DLC missions that take the core narrative forward towards the sequel.

Hopefully you found these details helpful in regards to understanding how this game is running on the platform. Whether that’s in the boosted resolution (visual fidelity) that’s provided by the extra power of the console, or just generally the extra performance that assists with the Horizon Zero Dawn frame rate to keep it running smoothly.

Certainly great to see what these games can provide on the latest console platform that features full backwards compatible support and will see many new titles release over its lifespan. It should be exciting to see what’s to come for the consoles and how much gaming will change over this generation.
