Square Enix has released a free demo for their upcoming JRPG Star Ocean: The Divine Force for PlayStation and Xbox consoles ahead of its October launch. The game revolves around protagonists Raymond and Laeticia, as a galactic federation start to assimilate planets against their will. Players can choose either of the two protagonists at the beginning of the game, which will lead to different story scenes and party members.
The free demo is roughly 15 GB in size and contains around two hours of gameplay. It will focus on the start of Raymond's story as he crash lands on the mysterious planet of Aster IV. The demo is an edited version of the full game, and runs until Raymond's arrival at Delryk Village. Please note that progress made in the demo is not transferable to the full game. More information regarding the demo can be found on the official Square Enix blog.
Star Ocean: The Divine Force is coming to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X, and PC via Steam on October 27, 2022. The free demo is available now on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Store.
