Horizon Forbidden West update 1.13 is live and still has dozens of quests to fix
Patch 1.13 for Horizon Forbidden West is live.
Horizon Forbidden West got a new update with Patch 1.13. Although this rolls out further improvements, it still does not bring the VRR support desired by many fans.
- How big is the update? On PS5, the patch is 477.2 MB in size.
This is new in patch 1.13 for Horizon Forbidden West
As usual, the new update also brings heaps of fixes for main and side missions. Although the game runs flawlessly most of the time, there still seem to be a lot of bugs hidden in the quests that can hinder progression. This will probably not be the last update with a focus on it for a long time, because even with the known problems there is still an order whose progress is hindered by a bug.
No VRR yet: So far, Horizon Forbidden West is not one of the games that support Sony’s new VRR. The function could be submitted with an update, but so far we have to wait and see.
