Sony and Guerrilla Games have released a new Horizon Forbidden West story trailer alongside a set of new screenshots and key art ahead of the game’s global launch next month.

　　The stunning new trailer focuses on the game’s story. “The next chapter of Aloy’s story begins on February 18, and she’ll face a storm of new threats: a world-ending blight, Regalla, and her rebels, Sylens and his machinations… plus many new dangers that have yet to be revealed”, Guerrilla Games' Narrative Director Ben, McCaw, writes on the official PlayStation Blog.

　　“But as she ventures into the frontier of the Forbidden West, Aloy won’t face these perils alone. She’ll be joined by companions both fresh and familiar, including stalwarts like Varl and Erend, along with new allies like Zo, Alva, and Kotallo.”
