The game’s plot revolves around said woman, Frey, as she’s a down-on-her-luck New Yorker who is close to committing suicide before she gets whisked to a fantasy world named Athia where she somehow has magical powers and a talking bracelet she calls Cuff. In Living Colourįirst up, I have to say that it’s not every day you get to play a game starring a black woman with magic powers and elite parkouring skills Forspoken gives you that opportunity, and thankfully its gameplay is solid enough to warrant a playthrough or so. Is it enough to elevate it beyond mediocrity though? Probably not, but not for lack of trying. Still, don’t count out action-adventure game Forspoken completely, because it does have a few merits despite what the internet tells you. Now with a fresh new IP and a new world to create, what they’ve resorted to doing, in the end, is, well, nothing out of the ordinary if you’ve at least kept up with anime trends of people in contemporary times warping into fantasy lands where they’re godlike. Square Enix’s Luminous Production has shoes to fill, as its last game Final Fantasy XV came out to mostly some indifference. Genre: Action-adventure with open-world fantasy land to magic parkour in. Platforms: PlayStation 5 (version reviewed), PC
