6. Forspoken – May 24 (PS5, PC)
Best Open World Games 2022
We’ve all been there. We’ve ventured too far away from our friends and family and have found ourselves a little lost. Perhaps its in a foreign country when we’re older, or just in a different neighborhood when we’re kids. Well, Forspoken takes this premise and brings it into a magical world.
Following the journey of Frey, a young New Yorker transported to the dangerous world of Athia, players must use a number of magical abilities to find their way home. Of course, this is a magical world, so don’t expect this to be a straightforward journey. You’re going to need to face-off against formidable creatures and use some magical parkour skills to clamber up canyons, leap from lofty ledges and snowboard down small streams.
Forspoken also brings some of the prettiest visuals we’ve seen on current-gen consoles so far. If you’re a sucker for excellent presentation in games, then you’re probably going to want to pick Forspoken up and see what all the fuss is about.
