Players will play through the first chapter learning about Frey’s background and unfortunate situation before her time in Athia. Like with several isekai plots, Forspoken’s narrative, especially its prologue, is incredibly straightforward but is filled with several details and events. With nothing else going for her, Frey eventually finds a golden cuff and is whisked away from the glum streets of New York to the vibrant, sunny plains of Athia along with her new magical accessory partner Cuff, where her high-octane, fantastical adventures begin. ![]() Unfortunately, this doesn’t stop the local gang from harassing and threatening Frey into doing more dastardly deeds and, when she refuses, destroy her home, making her lose the money she saved up in the process. Thankfully, the judge is cool and lets her off with community service instead of jail time. ![]() The game’s story begins in modern-day New York, where our protagonist Frey Holland is arrested on multiple counts of theft and grand larceny on the eve of her 21st birthday. However, while the game gives players an endearing cast and engaging combat, it fails to truly stick the landing due to an inconsistent narrative and oddly executed gameplay elements. For people like me, the game manages to scratch that itch left behind by the lack of Infamous titles by offering players a bold, beautiful entry into the superpower/ fantasy genre with a snarky but lovable main lead to boot. Forspoken is the highly anticipated fantasy action RPG from Luminous and Square Enix that’s made quite a wave and an impression on the gaming community since its announcement and release. ![]()
