Requires PS5 with Disc Drive

If you don't own the PS5 with a disc drive, you won't be able to upgrade your PS4 disc version of Horizon Zero Dawn. You also can't use the Digital version of the game with this method. Keep this in mind when deciding what PS5 type you'll purchase, as the disc versions of some games will require a disc drive to be upgraded.

In addition, note that you'll always need to insert the PS4 disc into your PS5 to be able to play.
