Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered gets its first patch and it sorts out a couple of really annoying bugs at last

The first patch for the excellent remaster of Horizon Zero Dawn for the PC has arrived and addressed a couple of really annoying issues – such as the cut-scene volume being waaaay different from the gameplay, leading to constantly needing to turn your speakers / headphones up and down. That’s all sorted now thankfully.

Also sorted are some issues people with ultrwide displays have been having as well as some issues with Steam Input, a;though these are not yet totally ironed out and are currently more of a workaround than a permafix.

It’s not a large patch by any means so let’s take a look at the changes it will make to your game
