Present and playable at Paris Games Week Restart, Forspoken is a game that wants to convince of its potential. Proof of this is with this new big explanatory video posted this weekend by Square Enix and the support of PlayStation. After managing Parkour a few weeks ago, it's the turn of Frey's fights and powers which are detailed here. We recall that on arriving in the world of Athia, the young woman is granted powers, in particular purple magic. Quick spells, explosive salvo, more powerful energy ball, Frey will have to learn to combine the three to avoid being violently attacked by aggressive wildlife and enemies who can arrive in droves. Thanks to this purple magic, Frey can also summon elements for support, such as these branches that come out of the room to immobilize enemies. She can also create barrages and lay explosive mines if she wants. On the defense side, Frey can also dodge enemy attacks, but also trigger a protective shield, capable of counter-attacking afterwards. The possibilities of play promise to be numerous and complete and it is hoped that this multiplicity of maneuvers will allow the game to gain in maturity. Its release is scheduled for January 24, 2023 on PC and PS5.
