Horizon Zero Dawn is an open world action role-playing game developed by Guerrilla Games and published by Sony Interactive Entertainment. This game is a port of the 2017 PlayStation 4 console exclusive of the same name. It is the first title that Guerrilla Games have developed for PC following their acquisition by SIE Worldwide Studios, and also marks the fourth game Sony Interactive Entertainment have directly published on the platform under the PlayStation Mobile brand. It is also the second release on PC to make use of the Decima engine, following the previous release of Death Stranding.
The game was initially announced for PC during March 2020 with a placeholder release date for later that year.[2] The final release date, August 7, 2020, was announced in June alongside the release of a trailer showcasing the features of the PC version of the game.[3]
The PC version of the game is available for Windows and distributed through Epic Games Store and Steam as the Complete Edition, which includes The Frozen Wilds expansion, along with a digital art book and additional in-game items, weapons and outfits. It features ultra-widescreen support, high frame rates, adjustable field of view, and remapping for keyboard and mouse controls and controllers.[3]
Reviews published shortly before the global release suggested that the game suffers from a number of technical issues, including stuttering introduced from a variety of different game elements, non-functional graphical settings and major performance issues.[4][5]

|
- This fix is available as patchers for a number of 21:9 and 32:9 resolutions.
- Open
<path-to-game>\HorizonZeroDawn.exe in a hex editor (e.g. HxD).
- Search for
39 8E E3 3F as hex.
- Replace it with
26 B4 17 40 (for 2560x1080) or any other aspect ratio in hex.
- Save the changes.
- Launch the game and make sure the Display Aspect ratio option is set to Auto.
|
- The internal frame rate limiter is not particularly consistent and reduces performance measurably.[10]
Use Special K to reduce some of the stuttering issues[11]
|
- The game reportedly has performance issues when running in borderless fullscreen windowed than exclusive fullscreen.[12] The included configuration may allow borderless fullscreen performance to be comparable to exclusive fullscreen.[citation needed]
- Follow the instructions to install Special K.
- Download the configuration file.
- Overwrite the current Special K configuration with the one included in the archive
- If using a global install, extract the contents of the Global folder to
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Mods\SpecialK\Profiles\Horizon Zero Dawn\SpecialK.ini and overwrite any conflicts.
- If using a local install, extract the contents of the Local folder to <path-to-game> and overwrite any conflicts.
- Open the configuration file in a text editor (e.g. Notepad) and adjust
TargetFPS as desired.
- Launch the game.
