Fans of mecha tactical RPGs need not wait for the full release of Super Robot Wars Y to get their strategic fix. The demo is now available on Nintendo Switch and Playstation 5.
Players will be able to experience the first chapter of the ultimate big anime robot clash in it’s entirety. And yes, players will be able to carry demo save files over to the full game when it drops later this month.
As an added bonus, players who complete the first chapter will receive special in-game rewards in the full game at launch. Steam players who purchase the full game will automatically receive the same rewards.
Here’s a rundown on the demo, plus a trailer:
