Guerilla Games used the June State of Play as a vehicle to let everyone know that Horizon Forbidden West is getting a massive update.

Horizon Forbidden West 1.14 Update receives New Game+, Ultra Hard Mode, Transmog, Respec

Guerilla Games included an update trailer for Horizon Forbidden West 1.14 update in the June 2022 State of Play. In this free update, Guerilla Games added the following features to their critically-acclaimed follow-up to one of the best Sony exclusive games ever:

  • New Game Plus – Finishing the game once isn't enough. Embark on another adventure to the Forbidden West with all of the skills and equipment you've earned in your previous run.
  • Ultra Hard Mode – Looking for a tougher challenge? Pair your New Game Plus with the brand-new Ultra Hard mode and get ready to have your hopes dashed by uber-powerful mech dinos. Note: you'll have to start a new game or upgrade a current save to New Game Plus to play in Ultra Hard Mode.
  • Armor Transmogrification – Love the stats but not the look? You can now transmog armor so that you can remain fashionable in front of dino brutes.
  • Respec Skill Points – Want to immediately try out a new build on your new runs? You can do that now with the new skill point respec feature.
  • Various bug fixes and balancing updates.

Horizon Forbidden West came out in February this year and has been one of the best-reviewed games in 2022 so far. The game is currently a PlayStation exclusive, but we're sure that it'll follow in the footsteps of its predecessor – and other games in the Sony catalog – on its way to PC.
