It is unclear how the source gained access to the game more than a month earlier, but there is some speculation that this might be running on a Jailbroken PS4 where someone managed to snag a gold copy of the game and was able to play it.
Regardless, there are two off-screen screenshots available right now along with a screenshot that appears to showcase the settings menu for Horizon Forbidden West.
Since Sony is strict when it comes to posting such leaks, these images have been taken down but an archive can be found on the Resetera forums. A screenshot was shared for the game settings menu as well. This appears to confirm that they will be a graphics mode available on the PS4 as well.
