Forspoken, despite its free PS Plus offering, continues to spark heated debate among players nearly a year after launch. While some PS Plus subscribers express excitement, others abandoned the game within hours, citing poor storytelling and awkward dialogue.
The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions, including Forspoken and Sonic Frontiers, initially received a positive reception. However, this enthusiasm appears short-lived for many Forspoken players. While some appreciate the combat, parkour, and exploration, the overall consensus suggests the narrative and dialogue significantly detract from the experience. It seems the game's inconsistencies prevent a PS Plus revival.
In this action RPG, New Yorker Frey is transported to the breathtaking yet perilous land of Athia. She must master newfound magical abilities to navigate the vast landscape, battle creatures, and defeat powerful matriarchs known as the Tants, all while searching for a way back home.
