Along with everything else, I find it so annoying that these games that totally didn’t need a remaster get one, and so many great older games just begging for a remaster that woud rake in cash dont get one.
Because those need work. These are easy to slightly polish up and push as new game.
Ps5 has literally only one new exclusive after all these years?
It has more than one… But it is incredibly lacking still.
But it got Astrobot, Destruction All-stars are both new IPs. There is also Spider-Man 2 and
Ratchet and Clank Rift Apartfor first party. And you can throw in Stella Blade and FF7 Rebirth for now as well.I believe everything else is remakes or not exclusive to the PS5.
Edit - ohhh scratch Ratchet and Clank off as well, that’s on PC. I thought it was the PS4 one that came to PC, but it is Rift Apart.
Spiderman was ps4 too no?
Wikipedia is only listing PS5. Spiderman and Miles Morales were PS4, but Spiderman 2 is only on the PS5
They did it so they can sell more data from requiring a PSN account, also just more money from people buying it, I guess.
Concord remaster when?
Concord merch?
give it another 7 to 8 years
It’s because those remakes take time to do a proper remake. I get the feeling Sony needed something fast for this one and Guerilla was able to turn it around without much effort on their part, at least compared to making a new game or remaking something older.

You forgot Nintendo.
And Microsoft for that matter.
And Epic Games
And Blizzard
And SquirrelSoft
Sad, I like them before
Like my exes
Even if I was a bazillionaire, I’d still be pirating Sony games out of principle
The Sony shit show continues.
Also if you bought the OG. You still can download and play it.
It’s funny that I could buy and play the original game, but not this remaster or the sequel. That’s because Sony doesn’t acknowledge that my country exists.
Good thing I have the GOG offline installer already downloaded.
Delisting it just means it isn’t being sold to new customers.
But it is, as a bundle.
They’re having one HZD listing, for both copies If you buy it in 6 months you can still play the original release with no PSN and no remake changes, they just package the remake with it now on the store.
🏴☠️
Lol remastering a 2017 game, mega cash grab.
Of all the games that could benefit from a remastering in 2024, Horizon Zero Dawn would be among the last of them. That game still looks utterly gorgeous, ffs.
Fucking called it LOL
I knew this was the whole point of the “remaster”.
The original is still available on GoG.
I also REALLY hate how confusing the Steam store is. If you look up the original game, it does not say its delisted, it just has the Remastered bundle inside the listing, which is a completely different product.
I checked GOG as soon as I saw this post. Hopefully they don’t take that down, too.
So basically if I get it on GOG and block it from accessing the net, I’m good?
You don’t need to block anything. GoG just gives you the raw files with no DRM and even let’s you download and install earlier versions.
According to the other thread, the game asks for limited or full data collection anyway, so I was asking; maybe it’s just for performance analisys or smthg, but nowadays you can’t trust anyone.
This original was already a privacy nightmare, even on GOG, which is why I was hesitant to buy it. Looks like I’m definitely pirating it now if I wanna play it. But hey, at least now we know why sony insisted on “remastering” it.
Just pirate anything Sony puts out. This shit makes it clear that it’s not worth giving them a single dollar. And if we’re being really honest, all their games are super generic and very mid, you can just ignore them as a developer completely and you won’t miss out on anything.
HZD is anything but generic and mid.
It actually is just another open-world action game with crafting elements, they may have been rare once but now they’re a dime a dozen.
Ok.
Which website should I avoid to make sure I don’t fall for the pirate scam?
So then why go to the trouble of pirating it?
Wait. Does this mean that HZD will disappear fm my steam library?
Delisting has never meant it is removed from your library for a paid game, in my memory. Just means you can’t buy it anymore
deleted by creator
No, it just means people can’t buy it anymore
Historically when games are delisted they’ll still be in your library.
I hope they just mean for sale…
Do you smell the sweet scent of money made by amassing more data from you and selling it.
Hmmmmmmmmmm hmm!
This is not true in the literal sense.
You cannot redeem HZD keys, and buy it as part of a bundle with both versions. They stopped selling it standalone.
So you can get the upgrade for $10 if you already have it, or wait for a sale on the bundle.
But in either case you can still play the original release without the PSN requirement even if bought after the remaster release.
For now
Well they have structured the Remaster as a DLC upgrade that requires the base game license.
So they would have to delist their new listing and create an entirely new release.
Honestly 99% chance they did it this way to preserve the review history of the original game on the Remaster.
Guess what I won’t be buying.
Shit game anyway get shafted sony
