Forspoken transports players to a world filled with beauty and dismay as they set upon a thrilling story-led, action-packed adventure which can be twisted, tempestuous and forbidding.

In A World Not Her Own

Where Resolve Will Be Tested

Truths Will Be Questioned

And Devotions Will Be Doubted

She Will Rise.

Forspoken is an action RPG where you will take on the role of Frey Holland, an ordinary young woman who must harness her magical abilities to survive in a fantastical and dangerous land called Athia. As Frey, you will embark on a thrilling, other-worldly adventure and face treacherous trials to unravel the mystery behind the unknown land of Athia and awaken something much more from within.

Forspoken will harness the full power of the console and demonstrate Luminous Productions’ philosophy to provide a gaming experience like never before, fusing together the latest technology with creativity.

You may have heard the news that Luminous Productions is merging with Square Enix. Beginning May 1, our talented team will join Square Enix to deliver new, innovative gaming experiences to players around the globe.

Between now and then we remain entirely focused on "Forspoken." We are currently working on the previously announced patch to address overall game performance (we will deliver an update soon) and the DLC, "In Tanta We Trust", is on track for release this summer. Thank you again for your patience and support!

When we established Luminous Productions in 2018, our vision was to make AAA games that fused technology and artistry to deliver completely new play expreiences. Having the chance to do just that has been a dream come true. We appreciate you taking this journey with us and look forward to continuing to create new entertainment and experiences as a part of the Square Enix family.

Sincerely
