Guerrilla Games have announced that Horizon Forbidden West will expand its story with the Burning Shores expansion. Check out the first trailer for the dlc below.

In this DLC, Aloy will pursue a new and 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.

Mathijs de Jonge the Game Director at Guerrilla had this to say on the expansion.

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.

The DLC will arrive on April 19 2023 for PlayStation 5. In fact there is no announcement of any kind about the PlayStation 4 getting the expansion, so sorry if you are not yet on the new console.
