Things To Do After Beating Horizon Zero Dawn (Endgame Content)
After completing the story for Horizon Zero Dawn, there are still many things players can do in the game, let's explore all of them.
Now, Guerrilla Games and Nixxes Software revealed Patch 1.08 for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, which adds a transmog functionality to the game, allowing gamers to pick how Aloy’s armor will look despite the actual armor they’re wearing. To access this function, gamers should open their Inventory, go to Outfits, and select Apply Look on the desired costume. The rest of the patch mostly focused on fixing several bugs, such as flickering backgrounds during cutscenes, issues when using Auto Pickup for items, or mount acceleration not working as intended. Other fixes include improvements to the game’s audio, fixing various minor visual issues, and gameplay elements such as motion aiming not working properly while riding a mount.
The new patch comes on the heels of Update 1.07 for Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, which was released for PS5 late in November. This previous update introduced elements such as Auto Pickup to the Pickups setting and a Color Blind Mode, and addressed some other bugs and minor issues.
Despite the positive reviews and continued support from the developers, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered is not selling very well on the PS5. According to a recent report from TrueTrophies, the game had a small impact on PS5 players when compared to The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered, having 92% fewer players than the other Sony remaster.
Despite some issues attracting an audience, Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered remains one of the best PlayStation exclusives. The original 2017 game was already a pretty engrossing open-world adventure, and the remaster makes the experience more in line with the recent Horizon Forbidden West, making the title an excellent pick for fans who have not played it yet. Gamers who are looking for more, however, should keep an eye out for the next game in the Horizon franchise, which could be released in 2025, according to some rumors.
