Wuxia-style pixel-art RPG Wandering Sword is getting a Steam Next Fest demo on February 6
Spiral Up Games and The Swordman Studio (previously Xiameng Studios) have announced that a Steam Next Fest demo for Wandering Sword will launch for Steam on February 6.
Wandering Sword was previously revealed in May 2022, showcasing a pixel-art style similar to Square Enix's HD-2D games. It looks to have a battle system reminiscent of Live A Live, though we'll have to check out the demo for ourselves to see how it compares. The demo will be available until February 28.
A new trailer, details, and a set of screenshots can be found below, via Spiral Up Games.
