Following a not exactly inspiring showing earlier this month, Square Enix has once again reached deep into its Forspokeon promotional sack, this time pulling out a ten-minute trailer showcasing new gameplay from its upcoming open-world fantasy adventure.
Forspoken casts players in the role of Frey Holland – played by Ella Balinska – an “ordinary young woman who must harness her magical abilities to survive” in a “beautiful yet cruel” world of Athia. We get a much better closer at that world in Square’s latest trailer, which includes a glimpse of the city of Cipal, Athia’s only safe haven, where refugees gather to escape the corrupting force of the Break.
Here, players can speak to citizens to take on quests and trade before heading out to explore Athia’s more dangerous regions, including Praenost – a barren desert where the only signs of life are corrupted enemies – and the lush region of Avoalet with its dangerously mutated beasts.
