A time-limited Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty demo launches today

A time-limited Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty demo is being released today.

The demo for Team Ninja‘s upcoming action game will be available from September 16 at 4am PT / 12pm BST until September 26 at 12am PT / 8am BST on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5.

Announced during publisher Koei Tecmo‘s Tokyo Game Show live stream on Friday, the demo will include online multiplayer, the character creator, and in-game abilities including vertical exploration and the importance of morale.

As a bonus, anyone who clears the demo will earn the special ‘Crouching Dragon Helmet’ item,  which can be equipped and used in the main game upon release.

A survey will also be made available via the demo in order to collect player feedback and help in the further development of the game. Those who participate in the survey will receive an original wallpaper.

Announced during the Xbox and Bethesda Games Showcase in June, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is scheduled for release in early 2023 for Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5 and PC. It will also be available with Game Pass for console and PC on day one.

The title is billed as a joint creation from Team Ninja producers Fumihiko Yasuda (Nioh) and Masaaki Yamagiwa (Bloodborne).

“Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty follows the dramatic, action-packed story of a nameless militia soldier fighting for survival in a dark fantasy version of the Later Han Dynasty where demons plague the Three Kingdoms,” reads an official product description.
