Burning Shores, the highly anticipated DLC for Guerrilla Games' open-world action role-playing game, Horizon Forbidden West, is finally out, allowing players to delve into the newest and arguably the most substantial chapter of Aloy's journey and her pursuit of saving humanity from the blight of rogue machines.
