Forspoken, the first and last game developed by the now-dissolved Luminous Productions, hasn't fared too well on the market, as Square Enix described sales as lackluster in a report shared online today.

　　As reported by RPG Site, the new Outline of Results Briefing held on February 3rd report includes comments from Square Enix's current president Yosuke Matsuda regarding various topics, including the performance of the open-world role-playing game released earlier this year. According to the Square Enix president, the game's reviews were challenging, but the positive feedback on some of the game's features will lead to the improvement of the publisher's development capabilities for future titles. However, sales have been lackluster, which isn't surprising, considering how the game has been received since its original announcement, the disappointing performance on all formats, and more.

　　Alongside commenting on the Forspoken sales, Yosuke Matsuda also commented on unspecified small and mid-sized titles from the publisher not performing as well as they expected. As some of these games were surprisingly solid, like Star Ocean: The Divine Force, it would be interesting to learn which titles did not meet expectations.

　　As mentioned above, Forspoken developer Luminous Productions has been dissolved, but Square Enix is still committed to fixing the game and releasing the promised DLC. A new update will be going live later today to introduce a variety of fixes and improvements on both PC and PlayStation 5.

　　Forspoken is now available on PC and PlayStation 5 worldwide. You can learn more about the open-world game by checking out Alessio's review, where he noted how solid traversal and combat were not enough to salvage the experience.
