Square Enix has brought a new look at Forspoken – their upcoming new IP designed specifically for the PS5 – to the Game Awards.Â
Square Enix hasn’t been shy about sharing regular updates regarding Forspoken. Given that it is a new IP, the publisher has wanted to make gamers aware of who is in this game and what it’s mostly about. Although, there’s still plenty of mystery to be had.
Mysteriously transported from New York City, Frey Holland finds herself trapped in the breathtaking land of Athia.
Frey soon learns this beautiful land once flourished under the reign of benevolent matriarchs, called Tantas, until a devastating blight relentlessly corrupted everything it touched. At the center of their shattered domains, the Tantas now rule as maddened and evil sorceresses.
Unaffected by the Break and desperate for answers, Frey reluctantly agrees to help the last remaining citizens of Athia who see her as their only hope. Frey’s journey through this strange and treacherous land will take her deep into the heart of corruption where she must battle monstrous creatures, confront the powerful Tantas, and uncover secrets that awaken something much more from within.
Forspoken is set to launch on May 24, 2022.
