Forspoken: a little magic in a world of Mist!

Game News Forspoken: a little magic in a world of Mist!

First production of the Luminous Productions studio, Forspoken stages Frey Holland, a young lonely New Yorker, played by actress Ella Balinska thanks to Performance Capture. Her quiet little life in the Big Apple unfortunately ends up shattering into pieces when a mysterious force transports her to the land of Athia. A vibrant world whose sumptuous landscapes actually hide dark dangers, fueled by the Mist.

Athia’s story is indeed far from being a fairy tale. Originally a peaceful kingdom, this region prospered under the rule of matriarchs called Tanntas. However, the arrival of the Mist turned everything upside down, turning animals and humans into monsters, and Tanntas into witches. If Frey hoped to spend a quiet holiday there, it was missed. Especially since upon her arrival, the last Athenian survivors rely on her.

Why her and not someone else? In addition to being endowed with strange powers, Frey is immune to the corruption that emanates from the Mist. An immunity that marks the starting point of a unique adventurecarried by a neat staging, an enchanting artistic direction, a gigantic open world to explore, and breathtaking fights!

Magic at the heart of gameplay

One of Forspoken’s strengths is first of all its movement system, both fluid and intuitive. Thanks to his magic skills, Frey can move quickly on any surface, dash over large distances or even climb mountains with disconcerting ease. Abilities that you can improve as you progress, completing challenges across the land and in the last inhabited cities. These challenges will also allow you to learn more about Athia’s past and the origin of the Mist..

You can also use magic to defeat your enemies, no matter how imposing. And thanks to a wide variety of spells, each associated with a different element, you can change your fighting style at any time !

So it’s up to you to choose the attack and support skills that best suit your way of playing. A customization that also applies to your equipment, which can be modified according to your opponents or the challenges you face. Forspoken also includes a crafting dimension, with the possibility of crafting healing and improvement items from resources collected here and there.

Will she be able to restore Athia to its former glory and send the Mist back to where it came from? To find out, let the magic guide you through the vast open world of Forspoken, available now on PlayStation 5 and PC!
