Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is getting another demo before launch

Try out Team Ninja’s sprawling action RPG epic soon.

If you’re one of the many looking forward to more Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, there’s good news – another demo will release soon, and all save data will transfer to the main game. 

On Saturday, developer Team Ninja announced that the second demo for Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty will launch on Feb. 24, 2022, for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and PC – specifically Steam and Microsoft’s storefront for that last one. Quite a step up from the previous demo, which wasn’t on PC at all.

Best of all, any progress you make in the demo will carry over to the full release. So there’ll be no need to replay sections once Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is a hardcore action RPG similar to Elden Ring or Dark Souls. Though a more apt comparison would be to Nioh, the series Team Ninja made before this. Unlike that franchise, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty takes place in China around 184 AD, while the Han dynasty was in power. 

Team Ninja has numerous other projects allegedly in the works, such as the long-rumored Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive reboots. There’s also the wildly anticipated action RPG Rise of the Ronin.

Team Ninja’s Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty gets a public demo you can play right now

You can start playing Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty right now on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles thanks to a new demo.

Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is one of the most exciting game announcements we’ve had this year so far. Team Ninja’s action game pedigree is turning to the Warring States period of ancient China, and we can get a chance to play the game ourselves starting today.

A demo is being released for the game on PS5 and Xbox Series consoles – unfortunately PC last-gen console players are being left out of this demo.

The demo is time-limited, and will only be playable from September 16 to the 26. That’s a solid ten days you can use to play Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, though how much of the game we’ll be able to see in that time remains a mystery for now.

Team Ninja achieved success with Nioh and Nioh 2, which were both difficult action games in the vein of Dark Souls, though the studio prefers the term “masocore.” In a post-Elden Ring world, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is set to be the next big exciting action RPG for the most masochistic gamers.

If that’s not enough for you, then ten players will win a Wo Long t-shirt – the same one has been given out at Tokyo Games Show to those who cleared the demo. Just post a gameplay clip from the Wo Long demo on Twitter with the “#WoLongDemoEU” hashtag while following the @WoLongOfficial account.

Playing the demo will also grant you a Crouching Dragon Helmet to use in the main game once it releases. Can’t say no to free bonuses.

The Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty demo cannot be played past the September 26 end date, even if you have it downloaded, so make sure to install and play the game as much as you can before then to maximize your chances of earning a free t-shirt. Oh, and playing the game itself is fun too.
