Square-Enix RPG Lost Sphear Demo Now Available On Switch, PlayStation 4, And PC
Lost Sphear, the newest RPG from Square-Enix, has a demo available on the Switch, PS4, and Steam today.
The game comes from the studio that brought you I Am Setsuna, known as Tokyo RPG Factory, and has a stated goal of creating RPGs that invoke old-school design philosophies from the 16- and 32-bit eras. The demo has players joining protagonist Kanata and engaging in the Artefacts system to restore memories to affect the game's user interface and gain bonuses.
Lost Sphear is scheduled to release on January 23 on PC, PS4, and Switch and you can download the demo from the respective digital shops. You can also check out Kim's preview of the game here.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
