Horizon Forbidden West Adds PS5 Power Saver Support in Minor Patch

The update lets players cut power use by turning on Sony’s system-level mode on PS5.

Overview

  • Guerrilla Games released patch 1.30 on Tuesday for the PS5 version, adding support for the console’s Power Saver mode.
  • The update is labeled 1.030 (full 1.030.000) and makes no gameplay or feature changes beyond Power Saver.
  • Players can enable the setting under Settings > System > Power Saving > Power Saver for Games, with a small leaf icon marking supported titles.
