Open up your wallet because Horizon Forbidden West looks amazing.
Aloy’s next adventure is fast approaching and Horizon Forbidden West is now available to preorder on PS4 and PS5. In what will surely be one of the best PS5 games when it releases on February 18, 2022, Horizon Forbidden West follows the events of the first game and sees Aloy journeying to the titular Forbidden West where a mysterious plague has taken over the land. Guerilla Games has added underwater exploration along with a host of new machines this time around, and early gameplay footage looks gorgeous.
Because Horizon Zero Dawn was such a popular game and became a flagship exclusive for PlayStation, it’s no surprise that multiple editions are up for preorder. We’ll break down everything you can find in each of these, where to preorder Horizon Forbidden West, and how much they cost. For diehard fans out there with some extra cash to spare, the Collector’s Edition and Regalla Edition look really appealing.

Horizon Forbidden West: Every edition available
PlayStation and Guerilla Games are releasing five separate editions of Horizon Forbidden West on PS4 and PS5. These include the Standard Edition — known as the launch edition — the Digital Deluxe Edition, the Special Edition, the Collector’s Edition, and the Regalla Edition. As you can already guess, the Collector’s and Regalla Editions are expensive but come with a ton of physical goodies, including an Aloy and Tremortusk statue.
A note on upgrades: Sony also made it clear that there will not be a free upgrade for anyone who purchases the Standard or Special Editions on PS4. Only those who purchase the Digital Deluxe Edition, Collector’s Edition, and Regalla Edition are entitled to a free PS5 upgrade. There appears to be no way to upgrade the Standard and Special Edition PS4 versions to PS5 at this time.
Horizon Forbidden West: Standard Edition
The Standard Edition comes with exactly what you expect: just the game. Nothing more and nothing less. But that’s okay because sometimes that’s all you need. Just don’t buy this one on PS4 if you want to eventually upgrade to PS5.
