Why Is Aloy Going To The Burning Shores? - Before You Play Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores
1,026After months of speculation, Guerrilla Games have finally announced DLC for Horizon Forbidden West. Titled Burning Shores, the expansion’s trailer first revealed at The Game Awards sees Aloy soar over the crumbling, overgrown ruins of Los Angeles. Riding a Sunwing, Aloy swoops past iconic LA landmarks like Griffith Observatory, the Capitol Records Building, Santa Monica Pier, and, of course, the fabled Hollywood sign; ruins that’ve survived a landscape transformed into volcanic archipelago.
How the now sub-tropical climbs of Southern California came to be volcanic in nature isn’t clear, although with the real-life San Andreas fault slicing its way through California itself, it isn’t a stretch to imagine a colossal earthquake has caused major seismic changes to the landscape – either via natural causes or maybe by GAIA terraforming the landscape – with lava now spewing out of cracked Earth. LA’s topographical changes are interesting too; the landscape of Burning Shores is much more undulating compared to modern day Los Angeles, with sea water submerging most of the former metropolis, creating a network of islands which Guerrilla Games are reporting as fully explorable by water as they are by air.
