Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition PC Patch 1.03 Now Out

Game studio Guerilla Games recently released the newest patch for the PC version of video game Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition.

The latest patch, 1.03, will fix more issues and crashes that have affected many players recently. This new patch does that, but it still has not stomped out all of the bugs like stuttering, visuals errors, and a few others. Those who are still experiencing issues even if the patch has been implemented, the development team is asking them to report them as soon as possible so that they can add that to the upcoming patch.

Check out the full patch notes below:

Known Issues
• Some players are experiencing an out of memory error during the game optimization process.
• Some players are experiencing graphical settings issues, such as Anisotropic Filtering or HDR not working correctly.
• Some players are experiencing performance issues on specific GPUs or hardware combinations.
• We’re aware of and continue to investigate issues that are not yet solved on both the player-compiled lists by u/EvilMonkeySlayer and u/Rampage572 – thank you!
