With Luminous Productions also claiming in an official statement that Forspoken’s ‘game elements are now complete, and development is in its final polishing phase,’ we can at least assume the game is nearly ready. Let’s not forget, the title was previously scheduled for a May 2022 release before a delay until October 11 th. All the same, releasing a major title alongside such stiff competition presents obvious risks to sales figures, and if this feature is focusing a little too much on sales thus far it’s only because Forspoken developers Luminous Productions cite a ‘strategic decision’ as primary reason for Forspoken’s latest delay. Its perhaps owing to Final Fantasy VII’s legacy as one of the most-loved iconic video games of all time that the remake’s sales figures propelled to over 5 million by August 2020. It was released in October 2021, a month jam-packed with AAA releases –like Back 4 Blood and others also saw the light of day within a matter of days, undoubtably syphoning player’s cold hard cash off each other in the process.įinal Fantasy VII Remake fared much better it must be said, becoming one of the fastest selling PlayStation 4 games despite releasing in the same window as Doom Eternal and Resident Evil 3 Remake, and just a couple of months before hotly anticipated games Ghost of Tsushima and The Last of Us 2. Perhaps players struggled to reconcile a Chris Pratt-less Guardians of the Galaxy, or maybe this decent game was simply unlucky. 2021’s Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, whilst its characters, dialogue, and narrative deserve praise, failed to meet the developer’s sales targets. Marvel’s Avengers was met with lukewarm reception, with critics citing its technical hitches and repetitive gameplay as overwhelming lowlights in an otherwise disappointing title. To say there’s heaps of pressure weighing down their marketing department is an understatement not only will their workload be immense, but the developer, are crying out for a commercial smash hit.
