PC/Steam
And those that plan on checking out Forspoken on PC via Steam should be able to start the game around 12 PM ET on January 24. This means that those on the west coast can play Forspoken around 9 AM PT on Tuesday.
Forspoken File Size
There has been some controversy surrounding the large file size of Forspoken, so players should make sure they have enough storage space on their console (and PC) before trying to download it. The PS5 version seems to take up around 90 GB of space, and the PC version asks players to have at least 150 GB of space. The PC requirements to play Forspoken are also pretty hefty, so fans will need a powerful machine before exploring the world of Athia.
Forspoken launches on January 24 for PC and PS5.
