Bad news if you have a PlayStation 4 and want to buy the Horizon Forbidden West in its standard version, that is, the most “economical“(69.95 euros), and if in the future you decide to buy the PlayStation 5, you should know that by having bought this version you will not be entitled to the updated version of the game to take advantage of the graphical improvements involved in playing it on Sony’s next-generation console.

In order for your PS4 version to be upgraded in the future, you must purchase the Deluxe version, which carries a generous surcharge until the price increases to 89,99 euros.

“To access the PS4 and PS5 versions of Horizon Forbidden West, it is necessary to purchase the Digital Deluxe, Collector or Regalla editions,” Sony said in a statement. “Entitlement to both platforms does not apply to Standard and Special Editions. There are no plans for an upgrade offer from Standard Edition to Digital Deluxe at this time.”

The funny thing about all this is that Jim Ryan, the CEO of Sony Interactive Entertainment, had announced at the end of September 2020 that all users could update their version, but now it is indicated that users who spend less money will not be able to enjoy the game in a higher visual quality once they update their console if they do not buy a more expensive version of the game.

“No one should be disappointed. The PS5 versions of those games have been built from the ground up to take advantage of the PS5 feature set, and we have an upgrade path for PS4 users to get the PS5 versions for free. It’s about giving people a choice. I’m very happy with the situation. “
