Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.

We’ll see how it goes, and if there’s some swell of fan support post-release here. While High on Life had “well, you might as well try it” philosophy for Game Pass subscribers going for it, Forspoken is an expensive commitment for PS5 players. And this is one case where I don’t think the new “standard” AAA game price of $70 and no day one PS Plus launches like Xbox does with Game Pass is doing the game any favors here. Given just how important Spider-Man 2 itself is, a holiday release date it actually hits could singlehandedly make PS5’s year, but starting off with Forsaken reviewing this poorly is not great. If Forspoken is a miss, and as I predict may happen, Spider-Man 2 slips to 2024, that would leave this as a pretty barren year for PS5 with only FFXVI to rely on. I’d previously cited Forspoken as one of the PS5’s three major console exclusives releasing this year alongside Final Fantasy XVI, also from Square Enix, and Spider-Man 2.
“Actually, it’s not as bad as everyone’s saying” seems to be the main point of praise for it right now, which is not especially promising. The broad consensus here seems to be that while Forspoken offers flashy combat and parkour movement, its RPG. I would be surprised if there was some surge of fan support for the game to propel it to become a hit on PS5 and PC, but I suppose it’s too early to tell. On Metacritic, the game sits at a 68 overall rating, based on over 40 critic reviews. However, I’m not sure Forspoken has any inborn advantages here like a fanbase devoted to Rick and Morty style humor.
