It’s not a huge surprise given the profile of the title, but Horizon Zero Dawn has shot straight to the top of Steam’s best-sellers list following this week’s release date announcement.

We’ll still need to wait and see if this unprecedented endeavour pans out for PlayStation, but it’ll surely be buoyed by the early signs.

A true PlayStation veteran, Sammy's covered the world of PS gaming for years, with an enormous Trophy count to prove it.

Persona 4 Golden did the same, it’s almost as if PC gamers are really chuffed at being able to play big PS games.

No doubt some PC gamers hope it encourages Sony to release more of their games on PC.

Personally I'd rather Sony didn't becasuse it risks eroding PlayStation's importance as a platform if Sony continue to pander to a group of players who don't care about PlayStation as both a community and as an ecosystem.

HZD was one of my favourite games this generation glad to see others getting the chance to enjoy this great game!

I’d be interested to see if the successes of PS exclusives on PC (Steam & Epic) result in a partnership of sorts to get more PC games on PS.

Good news I don't know why Sony games appearing on the pc are a bad thing there are console players and pc players with a huge base on both platforms, now if it was released on a Nintendo console or xbox then I could understand it..

More money in the Playstation coffers for relatively little work.

if you are someone who is pissed because more can play these good games then you guys have some serious issues i suggest you work on that..🤨!

I suppose it will be one of the free games for ps plus in August now?

It's not asking much from Sony, since porting it to PC is showing to be financially succesful, especially if they plan to port it to PS5 (which, let's be honest, they will almost definitely ask you to pay for it and it still WON'T be as impressive as the PC version anyway)?

Hopefully it's only this game and they don't just give other exclusives as well.

If you're making a console purchase (assuming it's at launch or close to launch) the profit margin for Sony is razor thin, if not a loss.

And not everyone loves every Sony exclusive?

They will continue to play almost every game on PC?

They will not be buying PS Plus subs, large amounts of games, DLC on every game.

Sony will get a single licensing fee from a game purchase every year or 2.

PC gamers will continue to play the vast majority of the games they want to play on PC, they aren't going to completely instantly change their platform of choice to play inferior versions of the majority of their games (not meant as an insult) just because there is 1 game exclusive to a platform every year or 3.

@80sGamer I like how your comment makes Sony sound the Terminator lol.

On one hand it's great for Sony to see cash coming in for this port to PC, but from a customer standpoint (for me at least) I'm not a fan of this because I like to brag these exclusives to others and tell them to buy a PS and not an XBOX.

For me it's the library that Sony brings (mostly it's exclusives) that you can't get anywhere.

For me it's what games are offered which is why at this point in time Sony will kill it over XBOX or Nintendo.

They just have better exclusives which will drive sales.

Man I was pretty close to buying a cheap PS4 off ebay just to play a few games I wanted, Horizon was one of them

I haven't owned a Playstation since PS2 and don't have any plans in the future, I will however buy Horizon off of Steam to show Sony there's money to be made

If the writer thinks I will buy PS5 which will already be inferior to my PC on release day just to play a dumb down 30fps version of Horizon II without mods, well you're not a sane fellow

However if we did Sony would just not bring anything else in the future, so it was best to just cough up the money even though $50 is a bit high

I really wanted to play Days Gone and the infamous games so hopefully we don't have to wait too long, will I maybe get a PS5 now

no way >_< all the games I want are coming to me with ultra settings so why would I waste money on a subpar version (No offense)!

Sony aren’t going to let go of exclusive titles on PS4 at launch because it’s the exclusives which have seen them thump Microsoft in sales

Many PC gamers out there have a PS4 just for the exclusives, so it's quite probable than improbable

@Arnna People just love to hate Sony

Or just expect them to throw all their exclusives on PC

It's also why there is no Game Pass like service from them as well

The whole reason I am loyal to Sony is they have a better variety of titles and higher quality exclusives than PC or XBOX

It’s far smarter for Sony to do what they are doing and releasing games like HZD a bit later on PC
