Horizon Forbidden West update 1.24 patch notes have been revealed. Like the previous one, the new update has addressed several important bugs and errors in both the main and side quests. One of the annoying bugs is fixed, which is related to the main quest “To the Burning Shores.” This issue caused Seyka to block the climbing path upon loading the save. Additionally, another problem in the same quest caused the time of day to become stuck after fast traveling away from the tower. Here are the all details on Horizon Forbidden West update 1.24 patch notes.
