Forspoken was a huge swing and missed for Square Enix, but it’s possible that interest could be drummed up for the game again later this month. Just in, we have our first gameplay trailer for Forspoken: In Tanta We Trust, and it has Frey journeying to the past with a new Tanta companion.
Check this out:
Here’s the official synopsis for the expansion:
After bringing peace to Athia, Frey’s journey continues as she searches for a way to permanently rid the land of the effects of the Break. Amid her search, she follows a mysterious voice that leads her into the past.
When she emerges, Frey finds herself surrounded by chaos and destruction. Injured and draped in blood-soaked clothing, she discovers a grim truth about her fate. The recently thriving Athia is at war, but why and with whom? Accompanied by Tanta Cinta, and a new set of magic, Frey must uncover the answers and save Athia once more – and attempt to save herself.
While we expect Frey to be playable in the expansion with all-new powers, it also looks like players will be able to take control of Tanta CInta; instead of a magic band, she will have some kind of magical sword that has its own set of unique attacks.
Forspoken may not have been the best launch for a new-gen game, but we have seen DLC revive supposed duds like Burning Shores did for Horizon Forbidden West. Maybe they should invest in a Forspoken anime series to drum up interest—it worked for Cyberpunk 2077.
Forspoken: In Tanta, We Trust launches on May 26. Forspoken is currently available for PC and PS5.
