If The Last of Us Part I taught the world anything, it’s that an exhaustive remake of an already-excellent PlayStation game made far too soon can actually be a good thing. Now, less than a year after the release of Horizon Forbidden West, new reports suggest that Sony may be working on a remake or remaster for the first game, Horizon Zero Dawn. Similar to how the Last of Us remake incorporated the accessibility features, improved visuals, and better performance of its sequel, this Horizon remake could do the same on PS5. While early reactions are mixed, this codifies a novel approach that Sony is taking to its greatest hits, breathing new life into its most beloved titles by making them easier to access and better to play for all types of gamers.
