The combat sees you switch between two kinds of magic: the Purple magic ranged and with more control/healing support spells, and a melee-ish Red magic where you thwack people with fire swords or - my favourite - throw explosive fire lances at them. Still, Forspoken has some cool stuff going on. My impression from the demo is that it's aaaaallright and I would like to play more - which, in fairness, is not the impression I'd want to get if I'd pre-ordered the deluxe edition for £90. I say that because the conventional wisdom has become that everyone will and that it's going to be shit. And you know what? I don't hate it! Sadly I cannot confirm if any of Forspoken's PC features work. Like many others - and you too, if you've got a PS5 - I've been able to play the free Forspoken demo, which plops you into the game after the opening bumf, and presumably the cutscene where Frey establishes her modern girl "lemme get this straight?!" credentials. But unfortunately we, too, are one of the outlets who don't have code, so no PC review from us for a while. I was actually pretty excited to review the game, and was hopeful that the dialogue would make sense and work in context. You may have already heard that several outlets haven't had review code for Forspoken, Squeenix's magical parkour isekai game that's out today and that some people have already decided they hate because of the dialogue.
