Later on a v-year gap and a new console generation, Horizon: Forbidden W has been released for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Forbidden West is a massive sequel, with a much larger open earth to explore. Guerrilla Games have expanded the scope of the storytelling, with vastly improved cinematics and improvements to the Decima Engine.

For those wondering how much space they should clear on your hard drive, this is what y'all must prepare for. Unlike most PS5 games, Horizon Forbidden West is rather big, coming in at over 90 GB at launch for Europe. Forbidden W also has some variance betwixt regions. These variances are with the day one patch included.
