PC ports. Should we believe rumors the leaks?
Table of Contents
Leaks regarding PC versions of console exclusives are among the most trustworthy, as experience shows. Going back no further than last year, it is easy to cite a few such examples, often related to high-profile games.
Red Dead Redemption II
Rockstar Games' magnum opus was among the most-wanted console exclusives on PC for a long time, and it was absolutely unclear whether the pipe-dream would realize. On the one hand, most of the studio's latest games eventually made it to PC; on the other, the original RDR is still only available on consoles. After a few fairly strong unofficial reports, however, a PC version was finally announced.
Horizon: Zero Dawn
In late 2019, a Russian journalist suggested that Horizon: Zero Dawn was heading to PC. Interestingly, a prominent industry journalist, Jason Schreier, himself admitted that it was possible. Later, we could also see an official listing of the game in the French Amazon, which was promptly removed. On March 10, news broke that Horizon: Zero Dawn is also coming to PC.
Death Stranding
In May last year, Italian journalist Antonio Fucito (who had previously revealed the game's release date) revealed that Death Stranding was headed for personal computers. In early August, it was dropped from the PS4 exclusive titles list, raising fans' hopes for a PC version. However, in late October, Hideo Kojima officially confirmed that Death Stranding would indeed make a PC release. The info was solid.
