Horizon Forbidden West will have a 60 FPS performance mode on PS5

[Slaythe]

From Julien Chièze's interview :






Lots of other tidbits in his video but I feel this is important enough to single out.

- Free climbing thanks to a new automated system that basically adds points of climbing on most surfaces instead of being placed manually, some exceptions for game design / story pacing reasons.
- Hookshot upwards

there it is. This is why I'm happy for H:FW + GoW:R being crossgen

I would've been extremely shocked if it didn't considering there is a PS4 version.....

 

[Neoxon]

Great, now confirm gyro aiming. It was a glaring omission in the original game, especially coming off of BotW.

and proper shoulder swap.

Knew it was preeeetty much a given, but I'm glad it's confirmed. Guess I should get around to playing the first one soon.

Bro I got really scared with their "engine designed at 30 fps"

 

[shadowsdarknes]

Perfect. This game is gonna be a banger.

 

[CarterTax]

Good to know and good to hear about climbing. I was just playing through the Forbidden West Frozen Wilds DLC and re-realized I'm not a fan of the climbing mechanics as is.

 

[xem]

yessssssssssss. thank you. I'll buy 2 now. take my money.gif

yep

 

[E.T.]

Nice but expected. The game is a stunner no doubt.

 

[Couscous]

That's great to hear. I just hope it releases this year.

 

[Linus815]

good shit

 

[Lashley]

As expected

 

[ArmGunar]

Damn nice !

 

[Poldino]

Yay! Fantastic news and great for free climbing too

This game is going to be amazing

 

[Noppie]

As expected. Hope it continues the entire gen.

 

[Shock32]

Noice!

 

[badboy78660]

Would've been more surprised if it wasn't an option for the PS5.

But what about zero dawn! Do I have to do a satanic rain dance or something To get it?

 

[Diogo Arez]

Expected, I'll probably play at 30, in this kind of games I prefer visuals

 

[Kolx]

Only advantage to being cross gen. Was worried they were not gonna be one since they didn't confirm it after the last SoP.

 

[pswii60]

Expected, but so damn good to have it confirmed. Otherwise I would have given the game a miss entirely, such is my hatred of 30fps.

 

[Darkkahn]

Good stuff.

 

[TheRealTalker]

Good, good.

 

[War95]

60 FPS thank god

 

[mueske]

Going to love looking at those climbing and opening door segments in glorious 60 fps!!

but 60fps looks better than 30fps

Are you from the year 2024? is the DLC good?

 

[DrMoguera]

I'm still hoping the original game gets a 60 fps patch too

I did enjoy the previous game, so more of that at higher framerates is great C:

 

[dodmaster]

Wow nice. So the same fidelity at 60fps? That's a deal.

 

[Izunavis]

...Aaaand breathe era.

Seriously great to hear confirmation.

 

[Renteka-Bond]

Exactly what I was waiting on. Fell off of the first one about 15-20 hours in, but I'd finish it if they patched in a 60 fps mode on PS5.

 

[Joule]

Not surprised as it is a PS4 game as well.

 

[BarcaTheGreat]

Wrong HZDFW forum

Ha! Frozen Wilds DLC.

 

[Mathieran]

I'll try both but if the 30 FPS is as good as HZD, I'm gonna go with the graphics mode

 

[Deleted member 87246]

Love they've added a glider and free climbing.

The Legend of Horizon: Breath of the Forbidden West.

The game looks great and will look even better at 60.

 

[Slaythe]

No we can't breathe now we have to confirm hero lightning is present at 60 FPS LMAO.

Cause ps4 doesn't have it apparently.

 

[Bishop89]

Then 60fps mode is what I'll play

 

[Lys Skygge]

I wonder what the compromises will be. If it's just lower resolution then I'd take 60fps, but if some of the eye candy is lowered (lighting, reflections, etc...) then I'm fine with sticking to 30fps 😊

 

[Diogo Arez]

but 60fps looks better than 30fps

Click to shrink...

Depends on the game, for example I played Miles at 4K30 instead of RT60 because the reflections looked a bit off imo
My choice is entirely dependant on the game, for example Valhalla and Demon's Souls I played at 60 but if a game has RT or more density in crowds like Miles I'll gladly play at 30

 

[Deleted member 17990]

hype!

 

[Solobbos]

Okay, that's fucking awesome.

 

[Bigfellahull]

This isn't official confirmation right? I don't know who this guy is. Is he a reliable source?

EDIT: OK. Watch video first before commenting!

 

[hog]

Hope we don't have to lose any graphics settings to get that. 1080p 60fps with the best graphics is what I'm after.
