Two boss fights, but no save transfer
We’d strongly encourage you to read our Lost Soul Aside PS5 review in progress if you’re looking for an early verdict on Sony’s long-awaited character action game, but you’ll also be able to form your own opinion with a free demo, which is slowly rolling out worldwide now.
At the time of publication, the demo’s available in Australia, New Zealand, and parts of Asia – although it’ll be available worldwide when it’s 29th August in your country.
The demo will allow you to “take the first step of a hero’s journey” and will enable you to test out “two epic boss battles”. It’s worth noting, however, that your progress will not transfer to the full release should you decide to purchase it.
Here’s what the blurb says:
“Test your skill, courage, and steel in the first step of a hero’s journey in the action-heavy Lost Soul Aside demo. Prepare Kaser for brutal challenges to save humanity, with two epic boss battles. Chain skilful sword combos in a deadly duel with the Rose Queen—a legendary warrior unleashing flurries of rapid strikes and dazzling slashes. Wield potent Arena Powers and a two-handed greatsword to face the Empire’s formidable champion, Holy Knight Commander Victor, and the immense Ancient Mecha construct in a ferocious clash for the ages. Can you survive? Are you ready for your epic odyssey in Lost Soul Aside?”
Remember, if you’re looking for more information on the game before purchasing, check out our Lost Soul Aside review in progress. And we’ll have a full verdict for you next week.
