At only seven years old, Sony's Horizon Zero Dawn didn't seem like an obvious choice to get a new remastered edition. Regardless, Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster is only a week away, and a trio of players have taken it upon themselves to create a detailed comparison between the original version and its new upgrade.

Reddit users Lanny16_I_think, Nixxes, and Guerrilla compiled the comparison and painstakingly used an early copy of Zero Dawn Remaster to match up with shots from the game's first incarnation. In each instance, the remaster added noticeable improvements beyond the graphics that made the world of Aloy seem more alive and real than before. Check it out in the images below, captured by Lanny16_I_think on PC.

For example, this town sequence in the original Zero Dawn is noticeably lacking in NPC characters and has a distracting orange tint to the colors.
