Speaking to the PlayStation Blog, game director Mathijs de Jonge said:

During this State of Play, we will debut the Horizon Forbidden West gameplay reveal! In this 20-minute exclusive segment, you’ll be seeing about 14 minutes of brand new in-game action featuring our heroic protagonist Aloy, all captured directly on PlayStation 5. This reveal has been a true team effort and we’re very excited to show you what we have in store  

It will be the first time we see Aloy in action since the reveal of Forbidden West during the PlayStation 5 reveal event in June 2020.

The teaser trailer did not give too much away, aside from the return of Aloy as the main protagonist, alongside teasing new gameplay mechanics such as swimming.

Horizon Zero Dawn, the first entry in the series, was released in 2017. Forbidden West is currently slated to hit shelves later this year.
