After multiple rumours, yesterday during The Game Awards, it was confirmed Burning ShoresExpected DLC for The horizon forbids the west. While many were excited by the announcement, Guerrilla Games also shared some sad news, As this expansion will be exclusive to PlayStation 5.
Although The horizon forbids the west Available on both PS4 and PS5, the developers confirmed that Burning Shores It will only be available in the new generation. This is because the technical capabilities of DLC prevent the experience from reaching Sony’s previous consoles.. What was said about it was:
“Our creative vision for Burning Shores is an ambitious expansion that will take Alo into the ruins of Los Angeles. It’s an overgrown, broken city that can be fully explored through water and by flying on the back of a sunwing. A massive machine threat lurks in their shadows, A huge challenge that Alo must overcome using all his skills and abilities.
To achieve this grand vision from a technical and creative perspective, we made the difficult decision to focus all our efforts on creating an incredible experience exclusively for the PlayStation 5 console.”
Thus, it is clear that Sony will, gradually, abandon the PS4 throughout 2023 We can only wait and see if fan comments change this decision BURGING SHORES will come The horizon forbids the westOnly on PS5, coming April 19, 2023. On a related note, you can watch the first trailer for the expansion here.
Editor’s Comment:
A DLC being exclusive to the PS5 is pretty weird. The horizon forbids the west It runs great on a PS4 and it seems unfair to exclude an entire audience due to not having access to the new console. Anyway, I can’t wait to enjoy this expansion.
