As confirmed previously, Scarlet Nexus' demo is out now for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S owners, letting you play up to the first major encounter as both protagonists, Yuito Sumeragi and Kasane Randall. As such, Bandai Namco released this statement:
Players can join the ranks of the OSF and take the control of either Yuito or Kasane for some psychokinesic action until the first boss encounter.
Yuito fights with close-ranged attacks thanks to his swords and can borrow Pyrokinesis, Teleportation, Clairvoyance and Sclerokinesis powers from his team members.
On her side, Kanase specializes in mid-ranged attacks with flying knives. In addition, she can use the following powers depending on the composition of her party: Electrokinesis, Hypervelocity, Invisibility and Duplication.
For those looking to play on PS4 or PS5, this demo arrives next week on May 28th, while PC players don't seem to be getting one at all.
