Forspoken Fails to Impress PS Plus Subscribers

Forspoken, a year post-release, continues to spark heated debate among players, even with its recent PS Plus free-to-play offering. Opinions remain sharply divided, mirroring the reactions of those who purchased it at full price.

The December 2024 PS Plus Extra and Premium additions, including Forspoken and Sonic Frontiers, generated unexpectedly positive initial responses. However, this enthusiasm quickly waned for some Forspoken players. Many abandoned the game after a few hours, criticizing the "ridiculous dialogue" and weak storyline. While others appreciated the combat, parkour, and exploration, a prevailing sentiment suggests that the narrative and dialogue significantly detract from the overall experience.

PS Plus's impact on Forspoken's popularity appears limited due to the game's inherent inconsistencies. In this action RPG, New Yorker Frey is transported to the breathtaking yet perilous land of Athia. Armed with newfound magical abilities, she must navigate the expansive landscape, battle creatures, and defeat powerful matriarchs known as the Tants to find her way back home.
