Memorial to Lance Reddick added to Horizon: Burning Shores

Not Forgotten

Guerilla Games has created a memorial within Horizon Forbidden West to Lance Reddick, who recently died on March 17, 2023. Reddick voiced Sylens in both the core game and its expansion, Burning Shores. This is as well as appearing in 2017’s Horizon: Zero Dawn.

The memorial for Reddick can be found within the Burning Shores expansion on the island where you first meet Seyka. If you start off on the area to the North of that island using a campfire on the beach (near the lava flow), you can fly directly south, across the straight, and onto a ridge. You might find it easiest to spot at night because the memorial itself is a bright blue hologram.

In honor of Lance Reddick, we created a memorial to commemorate the profound impact he had on us all.

Thank you, Lance, for everything you brought to the role of Sylens: your gravitas, energy, wisdom and more. An incomparable talent and friend. We miss you terribly. pic.twitter.com/PXiba7H3SR

Beyond memorable roles in film, such as Charon in the John Wick series, Reddick has been a voice in video games since 2009’s 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand. He had a prominent role in the Destiny series. After news of his death, Destiny 2 players gathered to pay respect.

The memorial is part of the latest update for Horizon: Forbidden West, and demonstrates how well-respected Lance Reddick was among those he worked with.

Horizon: Forbidden West and its Burning Shores expansion is available on PlayStation 5.
