New Horizon Forbidden West update adds feature fans have been desperate for

As part of tonight’s State of Play, Sony’s irregular broadcast of PS5 game news, Guerilla games revealed some surprising news for Horizon Forbidden West fans – something players have been calling from since day one.

The new update, which is releasing today, adds a whole spread of quality of life features to Horizon Forbidden West, but, most importantly, a New Game+ mode and an Ultra Hard difficulty setting. The former will let you replay the campaign with all of your unlocked abilities and gear, though now facing off against harder versions of the game’s enemies. And the latter, well, the latter lets you dive straight in against more powerful, smarter, and tougher beasts from the off.

The new Horizon Forbidden West update isn’t just about adding challenge to an already tough game. Developer Guerilla Games has also added a transmog feature that, according to the post on the Sony Blog, “allows [you] to easily customize the cosmetics of their equipped outfit to look like any other owned outfit.” This means you no longer need to pick between fashion and stats.

The other new feature is also a welcome change from the Horizon Forbidden West base game. You can now respec your character for free, reassigning all of your skill points freely, letting you experiment with different character builds as you progress through the campaign.

Paired up with all these new features is a set of fresh trophies to be unlocked as you play through on New Game+ and Ultra Hard mode.

As to future updates to the game, Guerilla has confirmed that it has places to add VRR support and improve rendering on both the PS4 Pro and PS5.

So, what are you waiting for? Go and download the update and start your new Horizon Forbidden West campaign right now.

More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
