![]() It feels like the developers at Guerilla Games are letting their hair down a bit and they’ve got some things to say. Totaling anywhere from five to fifteen hours depending on your devotion to completionism, Burning Shores marries the best parts of main game - unfettered exploration and slick combat – with a story that feels both more playfully sardonic and even romantic, both of which befit the Hollywood setting. ![]() ![]() Stick to the buddy system! Captured on PlayStation 5 Whereas Forbidden West featured the overgrown remnants of Las Vegas and San Francisco, Burning Shores takes place in the magma-riddled rubble of Los Angeles, although like the main games the degree to which nature has taken back the earth mostly obscures the locales outside of some very obvious iconic imagery and landmarks. Like the first game’s (2017’s Horizon Zero Dawn) DLC expansion The Frozen Wilds, Burning Shores adds a wholly separate area to explore separate from the main game’s sprawling map, with its own distinct biome, characters, and questlines. Headstrong and equipped with ancient tech, she’s spent the last 2.5 games quelling just about every rebellion, war, and local scuffle she stumbles across as the people’s champion-cum-savior, hoping to unite as many factions as she can to face their latest predicament: a world-killing AI barreling toward a woefully underprepared Earth. Set a thousand years in the future, the Horizon series follows Aloy, an outcast in a tribal society built on the remnants of a ruined world. Aloy must once again explain the stakes to every idiot she meets.
