Nintendo Switch owners everywhere can now try Sonic Frontiers via a demo before buying it. Previously a Japan exclusive, the free trial is now on the eShop in North America and Europe. People can download it directly from their consoles. It is also possible to visit the browser-based product page to grab it. [Thanks, BlueStarEXSF on Resetera!]
The Sonic Frontiers Switch demo is a rather large demo, considering the actual length of it. It will take up 2.9GB of space. Once fully installed, you get a brief opportunity to explore the world, encounter some enemies, and see what it has to offer. This also means you can test out how it runs on the console.
Sonic Frontiers, as a reminder, is an open-world Sonic game. In addition to open areas, there are Cyber Space levels that can call to mind the more traditional levels from past games. Post-launch support will add new elements like Tails, Knuckles, and Amy Rose as playable characters and new challenge modes. These will be free updates for all versions of the game.
Sonic Frontiers is available for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Windows PC, and Switch, and the demo is available for the Switch.
