This blight, which Frey calls the Break, covers the land and transforms living creatures into mutated monsters.

There, she bonds with a sentient brace she nicknames Cuff and then encounters a group of survivors living in the last city that's free from the effects of a dangerous miasma. In Forspoken, protagonist Frey finds herself trapped in the magic-filled world of Athia after stumbling through a portal. Luminous Productions' action-RPG feels great when it allows you to really stretch your legs and magically parkour across its fantasy landscape, but combat is clunky and regular exposition too often stalls the action. Instead, it tells a largely forgettable story that sets up major stakes but fails to offer a compelling reason for why the player should care. Though it takes inspiration from isekai-stories in which people from Earth are transported to and become trapped in a fantastical world (think Alice in Wonderland but Japanese)- Forspoken ultimately doesn't understand what makes that genre so popular.
