Utawarerumono Zan 2 demo is now available on Japanese PlayStation Store

Aquaplus has released a public demo version of Utawarerumono Zan 2 on the Japanese PlayStation Store. The demo lets you play the opening segments of the game for free. You can even carry over the demo's save data to the Japanese full version, which is coming out very soon.

The demo includes up to Chapter 4 in the Mask of Truth Chronicles. It will also let you play a few offline stages in the Illusion mode. A total of 9 characters will be unlockable in this demo: Oshtor (Haku), Rulutieh, Uruuru-Saraana, Nosuri, Ougi, Nekone, Kiwru, Atuy, and Jachdwalt. Although Kuon is also technically playable, she will only appear at certain stages in the demo.

The full game will have more playable characters, including Shis, Itak, and Mikazuchi. It will also include a challenging 100-floor Illusion Dungeon and a new story scenario.

Utawarerumono Zan 2 will be released in Japan for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 next week on July 22. While its predecessor is already available in the West, Aquaplus has yet to confirm an English localization for this title.
