Square Enix announces Forspoken prequel DLC release date
The first Forspoken DLC is coming up soon, and Square Enix said it’s a prequel story set decades before Frey’s tale begins. The DLC is called In Tanta We Trust and launches on May 26, 2023, for PS5 and PC. Those who own the RPG’s digital deluxe version will automatically have the expansion unlock on May 23, 2023, while everyone else will have to buy it separately. Square Enix didn’t say how much it will cost.
As you’d expect from the title, the DLC centers on the Tantas, Athia’s former rulers. Frey still joins in, though. Square Enix said she follows a mysterious voice and ends up 25 years in the past, joining Tanta Cinta and Athia’s other rulers in the Battle of Rheddig, which, if you’ve played the base game already, you might remember as the battle where the Tantas lost their minds. No bonus points for guessing how this adventure ends.
Frey also gains new magic powers to unleash in battle alongside Tanta Cinta and, seemingly, new parkour abilities as well.
“Scale to new heights in unique, vertically-designed environments with Frey’s honed magic-enhanced parkour skills,” Square Enix said in the press release announcing the DLC.
Forspoken is available now on PS5 and PC via Steam.
