Horizon Forbidden West Update 1.07 went live today. The patch gives more options to players about how they want to customize the HUD. Several dozen bugs related to Quests, Worlds, UI, and Photo Mode have been addressed. Visual quality has been further improved and Photo Mode now has an FoV match for the default camera.
We have mentioned the important changes below:
- Added an Always Off option for weapons and ammo, and tools and potions in the Custom HUD options.
- Added smoother transition between Tropospheric and Cirrus cloud layers, and better matching of the coloring of the supercell Anvil and Cirrus clouds.
- Made multiple tweaks to vegetation to improve image quality in the Favor Performance mode.
- Improved stability of depth of field during cinematics.
- Reduced stepping artifacts from SSAO in extreme closeup situations
- Reduced changes to saturation on motion blur.
- Improved quality and stability of shadows.
- Improved quality of grass in specific situations.
- Increased precision in precision mode to allow for much more control when orienting and moving the camera, especially when using long focal lengths and large apertures.
- The minimum focus distance has been reduced to 5cm allowing for more creative shots and macro photography.
- Changed the film back to 35mm full-frame, for a more clear focal length and DOF translation, and a more intuitive selection of focal lengths for virtual photographers.
- Added many more focal lengths to cover the range between 10mm and 300mm in a 35mm full-frame allowing for more creative expressions.
- Added an FoV match for the default camera.
- Increased the radius that photographers can use around Aloy from 5 to 10 meters.
- The Auto Focus rectangle and the Rule of Third grid are now hidden when using the Hide UI option.

Horizon Forbidden West is only available on PS4 and PS5. A PC version hasn’t been confirmed, but we are hopeful that the game will eventually be ported to PC. The game was mentioned in last year's Nvidia Leak as well.
