2022 is about to be the PS5's biggest year yet, with a wide range of cross-generational exclusives and true next-gen titles set to hit the platform this year. Square Enix's Forspoken should have been one of the said games. However, the lack of promotional material with only a few months left before its launch, along with a report from a credible source, suggests that Forspoken won't be coming out in May.
Once again, we have AccountNGT to thank for this intel. According to the highly credible insider, their sources say that Sony might announce Forspoken's new release date at a State of Play event this month. Following last month's Gran Turismo 7 showcase, several leakers have claimed that Sony is preparing for an even bigger State of Play event in a few weeks.
Of course, AccountNGT is not from Sony or Square Enix, so we can't exactly say that his or her words are true. But, the current situation does suggest that Forspoken won't be available by May.
Sony and PlayStation should have ramped up the marketing for Forspoken by now. Even if we consider that Sony wants to prioritize Forbidden Horizon West and Gran Turismo 7 with Ghostwire: Tokyo on the docket as well, it wouldn't hurt to release a brief trailer or two to hype Forspoken. Not to mention, Ghostwire: Tokyo got a new gameplay trailer in February. The lack of news regarding Forspoken makes a delay more likely.
