Horizon Zero Dawn was released in 2017. No published benchmark of Horizon Zero Dawn is in our dataset yet, so every FPS figure on this page is an estimate. Steam lists Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 as the minimum graphics card, a mid-range card by today's standards.
Frame rate cap: none on record. We have no record of an engine frame limit for Horizon Zero Dawn, so our estimates assume it runs uncapped. V-Sync, an in-game limiter or your monitor's refresh rate can still hold it lower.
