A brave new world
- by Khayl Adam 58m ago
Sony's latest first-party release, LEGO Horizon Adventures, is now available, but curiously, it lacks support for the firm's shiny new box, the PS5 Pro. While the spirited Horizon adaptation isn't necessarily a graphical powerhouse (like the recently upgraded Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered), it's still not a very promising start.
You can read our full thoughts on the game in our review, but now that it's live, it can be confirmed that Horizon Adventures supports the standard performance and fidelity modes we've come to expect on the base PS5 (thanks, VGC). Further, over on the relevant PS Store game page, Aloy's LEGO odyssey lacks the all-important "PS5 Pro Enhanced" tag that's begun to crop up. It could be added post-launch, but that would suggest another equally annoying precedent for future releases.
Obviously, this is not the end of the world, but it's also not a great look. We hate to be sticklers (not true), but we were under the impression that future games would support this expensive new machine, and we appear to have an exception already—one published by PlayStation Studios, no less.
