Horizon Forbidden West has been recently released to a very positive reception, earning praise for its beautiful open world and enhanced gameplay from the first game. Fans of the first won’t be disappointed with this continuation of Aloy’s story. That is until you reach a bugged quest in the game.
In Horizon Forbidden West, there is a main quest called The Broken Sky, where an NPC is experiencing an animation glitch that prevents the quest to progress. Don’t worry though, here’s how to fix that.
How To Fix Bugged Quest – Horizon Forbidden West
The quest requires you to follow an NPC named Kotallo, who puts down a cannon for Aloy to use to destroy the Bulwark. Unfortunately, the game glitches out, and so does Kotallo, who is stuck in a never-ending loop of putting down the cannon. Fortunately, the fix is actually quite simple, and requires only a couple of minutes.
- Head to the nearest campfire you can find.
- Once at a campfire, you have to do a manual save. It’s best to do a new save just in case.
- Once you have manually saved your game, press start and load up the manual save.
- Let the game load it and return back to Kotello.
- When you get back to Kotello, the game will have fixed the issue itself and the main quest will now be able to progress.
As of right now, this is the only way to fix this bug. But I’m sure Guerilla Games will be able to patch this little bug in the upcoming days.

Fixed it by returning to memorial grove
Other solutions didn’t work for me but yours worked! Thank you so much!
So I only progressed this far on the main quest in order to unlock Tremortusks for a legendary armor I wanted. I then proceeded to do pretty much everything else in the game besides gauntlet runs and hunting grounds. I’ve done every side quest, explored every spot, etc. And now done all the other main missions.
All that’s left is this one where I gotta go with the NPC who has the canon, except now that NPC is nowhere to be found and the game just says Return to Bulwark … Which does nothing.
Omggg same here. I can’t find that Kotello guy.
I go back to the bulwark but nothing happens. I guess he’s supposed to be next to me for the quest to complete.
What worked was saving, and reloading the game.
Worked for me. Although the glitch started already before the elevator even came down.
