Somewhat interested in this. Is developed by Square Enix' Luminous Productions (gotta use that FFXV engine for something).
Does feature at least one motherfucking dragon.

Introducing Forspoken, the new narrative-driven adventure set in a beautiful yet cruel world. Play as Frey Holland, an ordinary young woman who must harness her magical abilities to survive in the fantastical yet dangerous world land of Athia. Enjoy an extended sneak peak of new exhilarating gameplay and meet Ella Balinska, the voice and performance capture actor portraying Frey. Developed by Luminous Productions for PlayStation 5, Forspoken will take players on a magical and perilous journey. Stay tuned for the full game reveal trailer coming later this year.

From the short bits it seems that movement wilbe l one core gameplay feature, should be interesting, there's not a lot of AAAs that focus on that aspect outside of Insomniac's Spider-Man and old Assassin's Creed games.

Infamous focused on that also, and it was tons of fun. If the level design is interesting and varied it has potential.

Square Enix trademarks "The Forsaken Maiden" in Europe. Could it be the subtitle for the game :wacky:?

More cast member details:

  • Jonathan Cake plays Frey’s companion “Cuff.” Cuff is a magical, sentient bracelet of uncertain origin who helps Frey navigate through the sprawling landscapes of Athia.
  • Janina Gavankar plays Tanta Sila, the strongest and most formidable Tanta in Athia. While she once protected Athia with her unparalleled prowess in battle, Tanta Sila is now a dictatorial despot who is mad with power.
  • Keala Settle plays Johedy, the hard-nosed archivist who provides Frey with guidance during her journey in Athia.
  • Monica Barbaro plays Auden, a kind and open-minded young woman who prioritizes the needs of others before her own. She is quick to accept Frey in Athia and sees more in her than Frey does in herself.
Bear McCreary (God of War (2018) and The Walking Dead) and Garry Schyman (BioShock) will compose music.

More confirmed writers: Gary Whitta (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story), Amy Hennig (Uncharted series), Allison Rymer, and Todd Stashwick

And that's why I dislike Isekai, feels like the plot of an old B movie... but everything else looks promising, fantastic vistas, animations, the spells are insane and Bear McCreary!

Definitely on my watch list.
