Horizon Zero Dawn for PC listed by Amazon France
PS4 exclusive reportedly headed to PC later this year
Amazon France has listed a PC version of Sony’s Horizon Zero Dawn.
While the product is unannounced, the listing backs up a previous report claiming Sony plans to publish a PC version of the game in 2020.
Three anonymous sources are said to have told Kotaku that the single-player action RPG is making the jump to PC, with an enhanced version of the title expected to launch on Steam and the Epic Games Store this year.
Developed by Guerrilla Games and originally released in February 2017, the open-world post-apocalyptic title has sold over 10 million copies.
If true, it will be the first time a major PlayStation exclusive game from a Sony-owned studio has been released for PC.
Former Sony Interactive Entertainment Worldwide Studios chairman Shawn Layden said in August 2019 that the company may consider releasing first-party games on non-PlayStation platforms in a bid to reach a bigger audience.
In an interview with Bloomberg, Layden reportedly said prime candidates for such a strategy would be multiplayer PC titles.
“We must support the PlayStation platform — that is nonnegotiable,” he said. “That said, you will see in the future some titles coming out of my collection of studios which may need to lean into a wider installed base.”
Media Molecule co-founder Mark Healey recently told VGC that a PC version of Dreams isn’t currently in development, but that it would be “great” to release one in the future.
