Forspoken, despite being offered free on PS Plus nearly a year after its release, continues to spark heated debate among players. The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium lineup announcement revealed surprisingly positive anticipation for Forspoken (alongside Sonic Frontiers).

However, this enthusiasm is far from universal. Many free-to-play users abandoned Forspoken after just a few hours, criticizing the dialogue and storyline. While some appreciated the combat, parkour, and exploration, the consensus points to the narrative's shortcomings as a major drawback. The game's inconsistency seems to prevent PS Plus from significantly boosting its player base.

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 expansive world, battle creatures, and defeat powerful matriarchs known as the Tants, all in a desperate attempt to return home.
