If you weren’t aware, Forspoken was originally announced back in 2020. The action-RPG stars actress Ella Balinska – who will soon star in the Netflix Resident Evil series – and is being worked on by former Final Fantasy 15 developers. In the game, players will guide lead protagonist Frey as she is thrown into a fantasy world where she must use her newfound magical powers to face up against a series of formidable monsters.
When it does eventually release, Forspoken will be available on PS5 and PC. For those of you who won’t want to miss a second of Frey’s upcoming adventure, you’ll be pleased to know that Forspoken load times are barely one second on PS5. This isn’t just limited to the new-gen console though as Forspoken will also have one-second load times if your PC’s up to snuff.
