Sony Interactive Entertainment has released the launch trailer for Guerilla Games’ Burning Shores expansion for Horizon Forbidden West. The expansion will release on the 19th of April 2023 for the PlayStation 5. The expansion will not launch on the PlayStation 4 due to Guerrilla’s “grand vision.” Guerilla Games decided to design the expansion exclusively for the PS5 to achieve this vision.

Details via Sony Interactive Entertainment:

Today we’re thrilled to announce Burning Shores, our expansion to Horizon Forbidden West which sees Aloy pursue a sinister threat in the untamed wilds of Los Angeles, now a treacherous volcanic archipelago.

She will be traveling to a dangerous new region south of the Tenakth Clan Lands, featuring a compelling storyline following from where Horizon Forbidden West ended, new characters, adventures, and more – some details which we look forward to sharing with you very soon!

Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores is coming to PlayStation 5 consoles on April 19 2023.

Our creative vision for the Burning Shores is an ambitious expansion which will take Aloy to the ruins of Los Angeles. It’s an overgrown and fractured city that can be fully explored via the water and flying on the back of a Sunwing. A massive machine threat lurks in its shadows – a huge challenge that Aloy must overcome by using all of her skills and abilities. To achieve this grand vision technically and creatively, we’ve made the difficult decision to focus all our efforts on making an incredible experience exclusively for the PlayStation 5 console.

Thanks again to all our amazing fans for your love and support! We look forward to sharing more with you very soon.

Expansion details via the PlayStation Store:

South of the Tenakth Clan Lands, a millennia of volcanic eruptions and violent seismic activity has carved the ruins of Los Angeles into a treacherous archipelago.

Experience the next chapter of Horizon Forbidden West, as Aloy pursues a sinister new threat to the planet, hidden among these dangerous, untamed wilds.

“The Burning Shores” contains additional content for Horizon Forbidden West, including new storylines, characters, and experiences in a stunning yet hazardous new area.

– Travel beyond the Forbidden West as Aloy’s story continues.
– Encounter new machines and a compelling new story.

To enter the Burning Shores, you must complete the main quest (up to and including Singularity) in the PlayStation 5 version of Horizon Forbidden West—following the main quest, the player will receive a call over Aloy’s Focus, beginning the downloadable content.
