Given just how important Spider-Man 2 itself is, a holiday release date it actually hits could singlehandedly make PS5’s year, but starting off with Forsaken reviewing this poorly is not great. If Forspoken is a miss, and as I predict may happen, Spider-Man 2 slips to 2024, that would leave this as a pretty barren year for PS5 with only FFXVI to rely on. I’d previously cited Forspoken as one of the PS5’s three major console exclusives releasing this year alongside Final Fantasy XVI, also from Square Enix, and Spider-Man 2. “Actually, it’s not as bad as everyone’s saying” seems to be the main point of praise for it right now, which is not especially promising. I would be surprised if there was some surge of fan support for the game to propel it to become a hit on PS5 and PC, but I suppose it’s too early to tell. PlayStation and PC players can pre-order the game ahead of its January release.However, I’m not sure Forspoken has any inborn advantages here like a fanbase devoted to Rick and Morty style humor. But, for a head start, players can download the free demo on PS5 now. Those looking to get stuck into a brand new story are in luck, and won't need any priot knowldge to enjoy the story. Frey finds herself with magical powers, and after being thrust into the problems plaguing Athia, she must find her way home again. It follows the story of Frey Holland, a young woman who is transported from New York City to the fantasy world of Athia. No, Forspoken is a standalone game and a new IP from Square Enix. sJca6m7R51- Forspoken DecemIs Forspoken a Sequel?
