First Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered PC Patch brings performance and stability improvements

Nixxes has rolled out the inaugural PC update for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, accompanied by a comprehensive set of patch notes. This initial patch, designated as Patch 1.1, introduces a series of bug fixes along with enhancements aimed at improving performance and stability.

Patch Highlights

Diving into the specifics, the update addresses a notable crash issue that some players experienced when modifying mouse and keyboard controls. Additionally, it rectifies a glitch that led to disappearing or flickering shadows in Meridian, particularly for those utilizing ultrawide resolutions. Another fix resolves an anomaly where a bow appeared to float during cinematic sequences.

This update also ensures that pre-rendered cut scenes now match the audio volume of gameplay, creating a more cohesive auditory experience. While the update promises general performance and stability improvements, Nixxes has opted not to elaborate on the extent of these enhancements, leaving some to speculate that they may not be substantial.

Feedback from the community suggests that the PC version of Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered is performing admirably. It’s worth noting that a PSN account is required to access the remaster, and Nixxes has confirmed that there are no plans to eliminate this requirement.

As is customary, Steam will automatically download this update the next time users launch the client. Below, you can find the complete changelog for Patch 1.1.
