Forspoken PC Demo Coming Later Today on All Stores

A free Forspoken PC demo is landing later today on Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store, as revealed by a fresh blog post published on the developer's official website.

PlayStation 5 users have been able to check out a demo since early December. Square Enix never confirmed that a Forspoken PC demo would be available before today, so that's good news for everyone interested in checking out the game before committing to a full purchase.

Forspoken PC is the first game to support Microsoft's DirectStorage API, after all. Besides, the system requirements are pretty high, so the first order of business will be to assess the optimization.

I reviewed the PlayStation 5 version of Forspoken, rating the game 7 out of 10.

Forspoken is a fun action game that shines best when you're taking advantage of the great magic parkour to soar through the fantasy world of Athia and blast enemies with overwhelmingly cool spells. However, its content is underwhelming, its RPG systems are weak, and its visuals are less advanced than advertised. As such, Forspoken's potential is largely unrealized in its current state. It's still a decent romp for genre fans to go through, though waiting until it gets a discount or is added to one of the many subscription services is recommended.

The game, out today on both PS5 and PC, is set to receive a prequel DLC called In Tanta We Trust at some point in the Summer.
