PS4 Save import

[Sir Francis]

I'm currently playing HZD on PS4 but I'd love to use mouse and keyboard to have a better experience when aiming. Would it be possible to import my ps4 save file on Steam?

[Just Chill]

To be honest, I would like such a feature either.
Even though I simply would play my already 3 playthrough strong savegame further. XD

I very much second this question. I still haven't finished (and kinda gave up on) the last hunting ground, and on PC I'd definitely give it another shot xD

Interesting, as long as the save file structure hasn't been altered to accommodate PC, I don't see why it wouldn't it possible. Except the Engine has been update for PC, so might get a version mismatch. I'd be curious to know if this works.

No.. not possible.. ps4 saves are encrypted

So it's possible if you decrypt the saves?

there was an editor that decrypt RDR2 PS4 save to PC .. hope modders can do it for HZD

no, it'll never be possible. they are different formats to PC saves and tied to your PS account

Not sure encrypted is the correct term here, they are locked to your PS4s account and cannot be moved between accounts but they are not really encrypted. Your point is still correct though.

I believe smart people have been looking into removing the account lock from saves for a while but its not happened yet.

Edit - OK I was wrong, it happened for RDR2.

Hmm, interesting. Gotta admit I stopped following the PS4 modding scene back when it became obvious the people holding all the keys to he vaults had no intention of doing anything with them except for teasing everyone else about what they had and we didn't.

That's pretty cool to find out. Not something I'd do but still interesting. Usually if I double dip on games from console to PC it's because I want to experience the whole story again and it's been long enough for me to forget most of it.

why dont you just start from the beginning, it would not have such a big impact for sure.

Just an impact of 200 hrs gameplay to reach the point of where I am.
Yet that game derves it. ^^

Even though I am currently busy with modding some other game, so I doubt I will find the time to even try it out.
Yet I am at least downloading it. ^^

There will be a NG+ in the pc version but im not sure if its compatible with the console saves.

I've converted saves for other games to PC in the past (FFX for one). It relied on third parties to create tools to decrypt and convert, but saying "never" possible is wrong. The same tools may work perfectly out of the box, but we won't know till we can test.

I don't plan on really playing the game until they fixed the most glaring issues, so I didn't test the stability of this solution much, but I toyed around with save transfer last night and it seems to work well enough. Feel free to experiment with this if you got the required tools. Instructions: https://www.resetera.com/threads/horizon-zero-dawn-complete-edition-pc-ot-red-head-redemption-2.262572/post-41940516
