If you are a fan of Horizon Forbidden West (and you can tell by David’s 100% score on his review that we are) then you might be interested in an awesome piece of sweet tie in action. Seagate is teaming up with Sony once more for a limited edition officially licensed game drive for the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, this time with a gorgeous pastel-style picture of Aloy’s face on top. Let’s get into the specifics:
Specifically designed and optimized with firmware to work with PS4 and PS5 consoles, these drives are lightweight and offer plug-and-play installation in under two minutes with no tools required—so players can jump into action. Connected and powered with high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 1 (USB 3.0), Seagate’s add-on storage options for PlayStation consoles do not need a separate power cord, making it easy for players to play from anywhere.
Additionally, to celebrate the new Game Drive and the upcoming release of the PS5 and PS4 game, Horizon Forbidden West™, Seagate collaborated with Sony Interactive Entertainment and Guerrilla to bring fans the Horizon Forbidden West Limited Edition Game Drive. Inspired by the open world of Horizon Forbidden West, the officially licensed collectible HDD displays graphics on the exterior of the drive that highlight the strength and mystery of the Horizon Forbidden West hero, Aloy. Available in 2TB and 5TB capacities, the Game Drive gives players the power to store their library of PS5 and PS4 games. Owners can also play their PS4 games right from the drive.
The new drives include a one-year limited warranty giving players peace of mind. With shipments starting next month, Seagate’s Game Drive retails with a suggested price of $92.49 (2TB) and $139.99 (4TB), and Horizon Forbidden West Limited Edition Game Drive retails with a suggested price of $99.99 (2TB) and $159.99 (5TB).
We’ve checked out their previous Game Drive efforts and always came away impressed. Check out this video to see The Last of Us II and a few others for an idea of what we can expect:
