Free PS5 Demo for Upcoming Action Adventure Game Out Now

Long gone are the days of magazine demo discs, but that doesn’t mean it still isn’t exciting when a new PS5 demo releases. Playing these curated gameplay sessions are a great way for PlayStation players to see if they want to spend their hard-earned cash on a brand new video game. Sometimes, it can also be seen as a developer’s confidence in what they’ve created. Both are probably the case with the latest PS5 demo, which gives players a glimpse at Ryu Ga Gotoku‘s next game.

Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii releases new PS5 demo

Announced during the recent State of Play, a PS5 demo for Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii is available right now on the PlayStation Store. Players will have the chance to play as the fan-favorite character Goro Majima in a seafaring beat ’em up adventure. Specifically, both melee and ship combat are featured in this sneak peek of the upcoming game.

“In this free demo version of Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii, you’ll embark on a modern-day adventure on land and sea as an ex-yakuza, now pirate captain, Goro Majima,” reads the description of the demo. “Explore and fight your way through the vibrant city of Honolulu, then venture to the secret criminal haven Madlantis, where pirates engage in deadly naval battles for sport.”

“Dynamically switch between two fighting styles as you take down enemies in exhilarating action combat that rewards your creativity,” continues the description. “Dish out destruction with over-the-top combos, aerial juggles and finishing moves using your bare hands, makeshift weapons, cutlasses, and other buccaneer gear to hack, slash, and pummel enemies into submission.”

“Take the helm of your ship and challenge rival crews in the infamous Pirates’ Coliseum, where you and your crew engage in intense, real-time naval battles with machine guns, cannons and more,” the description continues. “After immobilizing your enemy’s ship, issue the boarding call to swing into epic hand-to-hand deck brawls vs. hordes of enemies to claim victory.”

PS5 users that end up digging the demo won’t have to wait too long to play the full game. Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii launches on February 20 for PS5.
