Horizon Zero Dawn Update 1.53 Patchotes

According to the integrated update history function of the PS5, the patchotes are here:

  • Operated frame rate on 60 frames per second when executing on a PS5 console in downward compatibility mode
  • Fixed problems with streaming performance during execution on a PS5 console in downward compatibility mode
  • Option graphic mode removed from the visual settings when running on a PS5 console in downward compatibility mode

As mentioned above, PS5 players Horizon Zero Dawn can now play with 60 fps in downward compatibility mode. Considering that many players have already owned Horizon Zero Dawn or preserved for free during the Play at Home campaign at the beginning of this year, this is a nice surprise for many Playstation owners.

This update also removes the option Graphics Mode from the Settings menu, a remnant from the PS4 Pro version of the game. On PS4 Pro, the players could choose between a 4K chessboard resolution with 30 fps or a 1080p resolution, which still strives for 30 fps, but with fewer framedrops. However, the game was largely liquid in both settings. None of the two options offered 60 fps.

Horizon Zero Dawn is not the first game that receives a 60-FPS patch on PlayStation 5. Days Gone had at the start date of PS5 60 FPS support, and God of War and Ghost of Tsushima received free updates to enable 4K-60 FPS gameplay. The Last of US Part II has recently received a 60-FPS patch. These are not special PS5 ports like Ghost of Tsushima Director’s Cut or Death Stranding Director’s Cut, but they are a nice bonus.

Horizon Zero Dawn is now available for PC and PlayStation 4.
