Horizon Forbidden West will arrive with no less than five different editions for buyers to choose from, and that's not even counting the different versions for PS4 and PS5.

A post from Guerrilla Games on the PlayStation Blog breaks down the many ways you'll be able to pick up Aloy's latest adventure. The standard editions will be available on PS4 for $59.99 / £59.99 and PS5 for $69.99 / £69.99, which come with the game and the Nora Legacy Outfit and Spear as pre-order bonuses (also included for pre-ordering any other edition).

Then the limited-run Special Edition for either console (price TBA) will bundle in a SteelBook case for storing your physical disc, as well as a downloadable soundtrack and mini artbook. From there, every special edition comes with both the PS4 and PS5 versions of the game, as well as a bunch of in-game bonuses. Here are the contents of the Digital Deluxe Edition, which will run you $79.99 / £79.99.

  • Horizon Forbidden West (Digital) PS4 and PS5 versions
  • 2 Special Outfits (Carja Behemoth Elite and Nora Thunder Elite)
  • 2 Special Weapons (Carja Behemoth Short Bow and Nora Thunder Sling)
  • In-game Resources Pack including ammunition, potions, and travel packs
  • In-game Apex Clawstrider Machine Strike Piece (more on Strike in the FAQ)
  • Exclusive Photo Mode pose and face paint
  • Digital Art Book

The next step up is the Collector's Edition, which most prominently adds a physical Tremortusk statue to adorn your real-life space. Note that this and the following package - both price TBA - include a Steelbook case that's just for display, since you get the game digitally.
