Square Enix has lifted the preview embargo for Forspoken, and revealed some brand new screenshots for it. Forspoken will be powered by the Luminous Engine, and these screenshots will give you a glimpse at what you can expect from it.
In Forspoken, you will play as Frey Holland; an ordinary young woman who must harness her magical abilities to survive in the fantastical yet dangerous land of Athia.
Forspoken uses the Luminous Engine and will be coming only on current-gen systems. Furthermore, the game will take advantage of DirectStorage on PC. Square Enix has promised to reveal more tech details about it in the near future.
Square Enix has delayed the game twice so far. The publisher was originally planning to release the game in May 2022. Then, in March 2022, Square Enix delayed it until October 2022. And now, the game will come out on January 24th, 2023.
Enjoy!

looks outdated already
lighting makes everything look like wet plastic
Hoo boy… Most of these shots are close-ups to show their particle system that was quite good already in FFXV but they did it again… Again, they have that agressive LOD like in FFXV. Maybe DirectStorage will help but I expect stuttering on PC.
Its SE stutter is expected
Their PC ports are just bare minimum TBH, maybe except Kingdom Hearts that from what I heard it is quite good port.
What’s both sad and funny that their games stutter for different reason. FFVII has problem with shader cache and texture streaming, FFXV stutter during transition between map chunks. It’s honestly baffling.
yes, forgot kh its good and run even on old cards
Enough with racist lady dr. strange. Give us cute Japanese waifus.
Hadouken
Such beautiful garbage.
Flop after flop after flop
Can i play as a male hero? i don’t want to play or identify with female hero.
Looks like a game made 5 years ago
forget the hero/story, the more I see the gameplay, more bland it looks
It’s basically a tech demo where you shoot blue sh*t at made up monsters for no particular reason. A formula that just about every new game is pursuing.
She looks so stronk and brave.
