"If you're looking for something new to play this fall but can't quite decide what to dive into, these free demos might help you make up your mind. They run the gamut from traditional turn-based RPG to action roguelike and mech RPG-lite. Best of all, nearly all of them let you carry over your progress from the free demo to the full paid game if you end up taking the plunge. Most of them are also available across nearly ever console."
"I recently had the opportunity to go hands-on with Digimon Story: Time Stranger for a couple of hours at PAX West and was pleasantly surprised by just how good it looks, sounds, and plays. It's a crunchy turn-based RPG that seems like it'll have a lot of Digimon-customizing depth to mine, but with the aid of some streamlining including a fast-forward option for battles."
"Imagine Hades but you control two characters instead of just one and you get a sense of the chaos and potential of Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree. Choose a team of two from an assortment of guardians, each with their own abilities and each controlled by a separate thumbstick. If you make it to the end, a guardian must be sacrificed and is removed from your pool of fighters until the evil you're fighting is sealed away for good."
Free demos are available for several upcoming fall releases across nearly every console and allow most players to carry over demo progress into the full paid game. The demos span genres from traditional turn-based RPG to action roguelike and mech RPG-lite. Digimon Story: Time Stranger offers a crunchy turn-based experience with deep Digimon customization and streamlined systems like a battle fast-forward; its demo covers the opening mystery and carries progress into the October 3 release on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree mixes dual-character control, guardian sacrifice, and town-, build-, and weapon-crafting ahead of its September 19 launch across major platforms.
