Forspoken from Square Enix is set to be among the most anticipated games of the year. With an official release date of January 24, 2023, it has generated lot of hype surrounding the game, even though early reviews have been mixed. With the upcoming game's release date rapidly approaching, gamers have been wondering whether it will be a PS5 exclusive.
What is the plot of Forspoken?
Forspoken is an action-adventure game around a young woman named Frey Holland who is grabbed from the modern world, and translocated to the wild fantasy land of Athia. However, while Athia seems to be idyllic on the outside, it conceals a cruel darkness. The land is dangerous and governed by the evil Tantas, magical dictators with iron fists. As political strife erupts and the people of Athia fight for their liberty, a corrupting force known as the Break sweeps across the land, transforming everything it touches.
Frey is immune to this force, and she soon discovers she possesses magical abilities that she can unlock with the help of allies, including a sentient magical bracelet known as Cuff. To defeat the darkness and return to her world (or not), Frey must master her new skills, accept her unusual circumstances, and confront a corrupting evil.
Will Forspoken be a PS5 exclusive?
Forspoken will be released on PC and will be a limited-time console exclusive for the PlayStation 5.

Revealed in September 2021, Forspoken will be released on Tuesday, January 24, 2023. It was supposed to be released on May 24, 2022, but it was pushed back to October 11, 2022. It won't be available until the end of January, but fans who are excited for the project will find solace in the fact that extra polish is the reason it was delayed.
