As you probably already know, the expansion of this adventure of Aloy is exclusive for the latest Sony console. That can be a problem for people who ended Horizon Forbidden West on PS4 and now they want to play the DLC Burning Shores on PS5, since it is necessary to finish the game to be able to do it and not everyone has time to play a 60-hour adventure again, so we are going to tell you how to copy the game from one console to another.
There are several ways to bring gameplay from the PlayStation 4 console to the PlayStation 5. One of them is to restore a copy from the cloud, but that option is only available to PS Plus users and only if they use the same account on both consoles..
If that doesn’t apply to you, you can move your game from one console to another using a USB stick. But the process is a bit more complicated than it should be.
How to move the game Horizon Forbidden West from PS4 to PS5 using a USB stick to play the DLC Burning Shores?
You just have to follow the following steps:
- Connect the USB memory with space to a free port on the PS4 console.
- On the PS4 console, they must access the option Settingthen enter Application Saved Data Management.
- Now we have to select the first option. This says Data saved in system storage.
- Then we select the option Copy to USB storage device.
- Now we search Horizon Forbidden West in the games list to be able to copy your data from PS4 to PS5 using a USB stick and thus be able to play the DLC Burning Shores without passing it again. It goes without saying that we can copy the data of any game that we want to continue playing on PlayStation 5.
- Now we must choose the game we want to copy. If they want to access the DLC, it must be a game in which they have already defeated the final boss of the game.. We recommend selecting all the games they have and then choosing the option Copy.
When the copy is finished, we can remove the USB memory from the console and connect it to the PS5. The following steps must be done on the new console.
- We enter the menu Setting from PS5 and we look for the option Saved data and game/application settings.
- In the menu on the left we select the option Saved Data (PS4) and then the option usb drive.
- Now we look for the game whose data we want to transfer to the new console. In this case it is Horizon Forbidden West and we choose the option Copy to move the game made on PS4 on the USB to the storage of PS5.
- Now we can enter the PS5 version of the game (remember that on PS5 you can play both the native version for that console and the PS4 version) and in the main menu we choose the option Import game from PlayStation 4.
- Now we must choose the game we want to transfer to the new console. We insist, if you want to start playing the DLC Burning Shoresthey must choose one in which they have already defeated the final boss of Horizon Forbidden West.
That’s all! As you may have noticed, it’s quite a few steps, but it’s not necessarily a difficult task.
When they start the game imported from PS4 and after marveling at the impressive graphics quality of the game on PS5, they will receive an informational message saying that they have the DLC installed. After moving Aloy for a few seconds, we will receive a message from Sylens, who asks that we meet him at Tilda’s old mansion in the south of the map. Obviously they must have purchased the DLC for this to happen.
After talking with him we can choose the option “visit the burning shores” to start the new adventure in the land formerly known as ‘Los Angeles’.
We hope that this information on how to move the game of Horizon Forbidden West from PS4 to PS5 using a USB stick to be able to play the DLC Burning Shores have found it useful.
