Thankfully, PS4 owners can now rest easy with Forbidden West looking mighty fine on the base PS4 model.
Guerilla has done an excellent job unraveling everything that there is to know about Forbidden West ahead of its February 18 release. In recent months, audiences have gotten a look at all the tribes of Forbidden West and the game’s all-star voice cast. Guerilla also released photos of Forbidden West taken on a PS4 before dropping gameplay footage from a PS4 Pro. For its latest reveal, Guerilla went the PS4 route. Unfortunately, the clip of Forbidden West running on the PS4 is just 22 seconds long. But, it does show enough of Forbidden West on Sony’s older console to guarantee players that the game will look gorgeous regardless of the platform. Hopefully, Guerilla releases more extensive gameplay footage in the coming days. Specifically, audiences would love to see Aloy in action in a more dense environment against some of Forbidden West’s lumbering enemies on a PS4. Suffice to say that Sony is kicking off 2022 on a good note. Back in January, Sony released the PC port of 2018’s God of War with Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection finally hitting the PS5. Meanwhile, Gran Turismo 7 was the highlight of Sony’s first State of Play event this year as it gets ready to race past its competition on March 4. Finally, Uncharted is set to hit theaters on February 18 as well. Outside of what Sony has planned for the next few months, we’ve also gotten wind of what the console manufacturer intends to do down the line. After acquiring Bungie, Sony announced that it wants to release 10 live-service games by 2026. Having said that, we’re certainly hoping that Sony also has a plan to address the PS5 shortage outside of just continuing to manufacture PS4 consoles.
