Game news Horizon 2 DLC: Aloy heads to Hollywood for PS5, yes, but why?
In the absence of a PlayStation Showcase: Sony resorted to the Game Awards 2022 to make a major announcement. Horizon Forbidden West, the sequel to Horizon Zero Dawn, will host solo DLC in 2023. So head to Hollywood with Aloy… But why this destination?
And DLC for Horizon Forbidden West
We knew the Game Awards 2022 was full of surprises, but maybe not to this extent. Along with big names including Star Wars Jedi Survivor and Death Stranding 2, Horizon Forbidden West also joined the party. Yes, the second part of Aloy’s adventures will welcome a solo DLC in 2023, exclusively for PlayStation 5! The program includes the “burning shores” of Los Angeles and legendary Hollywood. So ardently we do not speak of the Mediterranean climate, but of the lava flows that meander there (a novelty). A Journey Not Won Ahead – Coming April 19, 2023.
Aloy will travel to a dangerous new region south of the lands of the Tenakth clan (…) In order to realize this great technical and creative vision (what Horizon Burning Shores is, ed.) we made the difficult decision (…). an exclusive PS5 experience – Guerrilla games
We can find out more on the official website of Guerrilla Games, the studio behind Horizon Zero Dawn and this sequel. “Burning Shores is an ambitious expansion that will take Aloy to the ruins of Los Angeles,” the company writes. “It’s an overgrown and broken city that can be explored entirely over water and by flying on the back of a solar wing. A huge machine hides in the shadows”. On the fringes of this new metal monster (which promises to be the biggest in the entire franchise), Guerrilla speaks of a “malevolent menace” and scenario “what follows the end” d’Horizon 2.
Answers after a big cliffhanger
If you’ve finished Horizon Forbbiden West, you’ll know that Guerrilla has opted for a big family cliffhanger here (in other words, it’s the end of the game, but not Aloy’s adventure per se)! Without saying too much: After defeating the last boss, the heroine and her companions find that a cybernetic asteroid – the sum of a bunch of immortal minds that has already destroyed a planet – is heading towards Earth… In the face of the Prehistory of the thing, it’s probably the plus great danger never met by Aloy and her friends. At the same time, the company behind the production of the machines still does not have an account. So the solution to all this has to be found in Los Angeles.
But it is worth remembering that Aloy will not be alone. During her adventures in the Forbidden West, she formed close relationships with many people, including Zo des Utaru | Kotallo the Tenakth. Guerrilla is already talking about “new characters” for Burning Shores. On the main artwork of the DLC, we can also see an unknown face that Aloy seems to be fighting on the back of the robotic pterodactyl. Whether it’s new friends or foes, we trust PlayStation Studio to bring us a neat, well-written and rhythmic addition of content! Who knows, maybe we will witness the final chapter of the adventures of the famous fiery-haired heroine? The answer on the 19th
