Horizon Forbidden West: Complete Edition is coming to PlayStation 5 on October 6. Following the events of Horizon Zero Dawn, machine hunter Aloy races to save the planet's crumbling biosphere before vicious storms and a mysterious, unstoppable blight ravages the remnants of humanity.

Set in the immediate aftermath of Horizon: Forbidden West, Burning Shores sees Aloy travel further down the robot ravaged American West Coast in pursuit of a new lead from Sylens (voiced once again by the late Lance Reddick) that could stave off Earth's second extinction and the impending threat of Nemesis that looms ...

A third mainline game in the Horizon series appears to be in the works at Guerrilla Games. The developer of Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West said in an announcement Monday that Guerrilla's “bright future” includes “expanding the world of Horizon with Aloy's next adventure and our exciting online project.”

If you want to just get through Burning Shores' main story, it will take you about six to eight hours. This includes all the Main Quests, but there is plenty more besides just those; Side Quests, Collectables, and more will keep you busy once the main story is done.

The game gives us an exact birth date for Aloy through datapoints (April 4th, 3021). Putting together information from other characters and datapoints revealed along the way puts the main events of the game as taking place in 3040. So from that, she's 18 or 19 depending on what time of year the game events happen in.

Horizon Forbidden West launched last year to success and praise for its open-world, story, character development, and improvements over Horizon Zero Dawn - even if it was quickly overshadowed by FromSoft's Elden Ring.

Los Angeles Burning Shores is a DLC expansion for Horizon Forbidden West. It takes Aloy to the volcanic archipelago, located within the ruins of a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles. Since it is a direct continuation of the base game's storyline, it is only accessible after finishing Forbidden West's campaign.

Sam Witwer Another great but criminally underused talent in this DLC, gave his voice to our foe Walter Londra. He is played by Sam Witwer, the same actor who played Deacon St. John in Days Gone, and also voice acted in Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, The Callisto Protocol and many others.

Guerilla Games' Horizon universe is well-known for having a plethora of LGBTQ characters, and Aloy herself is a genetic clone of a queer woman.

Yes - Matt Arnold. The Burning Shores offer a highly satisfying coda to Horizon: Forbidden West. Players who are in it for the lore will find plenty of new things to discover.

Concluding his review, Hallahan praises how quick the DLC is to get through and expresses excitement for where the series can go from here. Burning Shores has some minor drawbacks in terms of its map and mechanics, but its compelling new character, and final cinematic battle, make it impossible to ignore.

For that reason, many fans have assumed Aloy to be queer as well. Burning Shores, the new DLC for Forbidden West, confirms Aloy's sexuality with the introduction of a romance between the heroine and her female companion Seyka, who's new to this new chapter. The full scene can be viewed in the video below.
