Sony and Guerrilla Games have announced the Horizon Forbidden West PC release date.

Aloy's latest open-world adventure will arrive on PC on March 21st, and it'll come complete with the Burning Shores expansion, which adds a new location and plenty of new content to discover.

As well as bringing the base game and DLC together, Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition will also come with several PC-exclusive features.

These features include unlocked frame rates, DLSS 3 support, and extensive ultrawide support, with 21:9, 32:9, and even 48:9 resolutions all being supported.

You can also look forward to customizable mouse and keyboard inputs, as well as Steam Input support, so you can use whatever controller you like to enjoy Aloy's journey.

Naturally, the DualSense has a couple of extra features over its brethren on PC, with Horizon Forbidden West making use of the controller's haptic feedback and adaptive trigger features.

Of course, if you don't have a superpowered rig, you'll get a range of graphical and performance options to tweak, so hopefully, you can find settings that work for your machine.

Guerrilla and Sony haven't announced PC specs for Horizon Forbidden West yet, so we can likely expect those to arrive sometime in the near future.

If you've missed out on Horizon Forbidden West, it's the sequel to Sony and Guerrilla's popular 2017 open-world adventure Horizon Zero Dawn.

The game once again stars Aloy as she heads to the titular Forbidden West to discover the origin of a sinister plague that threatens to end the world as she knows it.

At last count, sales for Horizon Forbidden West stood at around 8.4 million, with the game's success ensuring that more Horizon games will eventually arrive, including a multiplayer spinoff currently in the works at Guerrilla.

Horizon Forbidden West hits PC via Steam on March 21st. You can wishlist it right here if you haven't already.
