Forspoken announces its delay to later this year; new date and press release

Forspoken delays its release until October 11, 2022 on PS5 and PC. Square Enix has confirmed the date change motivated by the need to focus efforts on improving the game's progress.

Forspoken is delayed: official announcement

“We have made the decision to move the release date of Forespoken to October 11, 2022,” the company announced on social media. “Our vision for this exciting new IP is to deliver a game world and hero that gamers across the globe will want to experience for years to come, so getting it right is extremely important to us.”

Luminous Productions, the people behind Forspoken, anticipate that "during the next few months" they will focus their efforts "on polishing the game.” “[We] can’t wait for you to experience Frey0s journey this fall. Thank you for your understanding and continued support,” they concluded, but now before noting that they will share more information “soon.”

The delay represents five months of extra work compared to its initial date, which was scheduled for May 24. Unsurprisingly, both the PS5 and PC versions are affected by the change.

In Forspoken we will take the role of Frey, a normal person who goes from her everyday life in New York to being immersed in the gigantic and dangerous world of Athia. This sudden change will lead her to rethink her own path as she embraces the local customs.

“Frey’s journey through this strange and treacherous land will take her deep into the heart of corruption where she must battle monstrous creatures, confront the powerful Tantas, and uncover secrets that awaken something much more from within,” reveals the publisher in its official description. Magic is the protagonist in one of the big names of 2022.
