Various gaming outlets and content creators have published their reviews of the PlayStation 5 console exclusive Forspoken , which is officially set to launch tomorrow - January 25, 2023.
Judging by the reviews, it's safe to say that Square Enix's latest action RPG is having a bad day at the office, scoring 68 out of 100 Metascore , based on 58 reviews at the time of writing this article.
Most of the reviewers seem to agree that the game's story and characters are average or straight-up bad, while dialogue and writing also seem to be a major disappointment.
On OpenCritic, Forspoken scored 70 out of 100, which is enough to receive a "Fair" badge. However, only 30 per cent of reviewers recommend this one, which is quite telling.
There are some reviewers who praised the game, scoring it 9/10. They praised the combat, various spells and progression system. However, the general consensus from the media seems to be that Forspoken is just an okay game at best.
