And a new introduction from Frey's actor

The Forspoken title announcement trailer now has an extended cut version, featuring new glimpses of Frey's brief encounter with a "motherfucking dragon" and her combat magic.

The extended cut also features a new interview with Ella Balinska, who portrays Frey in both performance capture and voice: "Forspoken is the first video game that I've been involved in, and is my first time doing performance capture, and I am loving every single second of it. Frey is a character I immediately connected with when this project was first brought to me. She's real, she's raw, she's a girl who both figuratively and literally has lost her way, and she's fighting for survival as she discovers where she fits in the world."

Forspoken is still set to arrive sometime in 2022, and Square Enix is promising that more information about the game is set to come "later this year."

We may be looking forward to Forspoken most of all, but there was a bunch of other cool stuff announced at the Square Enix Presents Spring 2021 event.
