Forspoken
Games That Will Probably be Delayed in 2022
Forspoken comes at a time where everything game publisher Square Enix has released outside of its Final Fantasy series has been a little underwhelming, outlier Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy excluded. Marvel’s Avengers was a bomb, as was Balan Wonderland and Left Alive.
As a result of this stuttering slew of releases, Forspoken has a lot riding on it. Can the publisher release a new, original title that goes down a treat with both players and critics alike. It certainly looks that way so far.
Its breathtaking visuals are only accentuated by its stunning environments. We’ve never seen grass look this good, nevermind the stunning panoramic landscapes as Frey navigates the magical world of Athia on her quest to return home to New York.
There’s a fluidity in traversal that’s incredibly satisfying and silky smooth, too. Of course, with expectations set high by fans and an iffy run of recent releases outside of the Final Fantasy series, we could see Forspoken getting pushed back into August or September just to give the development team a few months to make sure everything’s nicely polished up.
