Set to run for two weeks

Arika previously announced that their upcoming fighting title, Fighting EX Layer, would see a beta test starting December 11th. The demo is now available for download on the PS Store.

PlayStation 4 users can now try out the game for free, but you must be a PS Plus subscriber to do so. This demo will be available for two weeks.

The beta features six playable characters: Kairi, Garuda, Skullomania, Darun Mister, Allen Snider, and Shirase. Those who participate can jump into training mode or fight against opponents online.

In Fighting EX Layer, players can choose between a Progressive and Classic control style. The former simplifies move inputs, while Classic retains quarter-circle, Dragon Punch, and other motions.

You will also find an option that shows all of the Gougi and what they do in the demo. There are five different options to choose from, each giving you different effects for completing various tasks.

With this beta test, the company aims to test the network match function around the world, and encourages fans to participate and provide honest feedback.

Though he is not playable in the beta, we know that Doctrine Dark will also be joining the game's roster. Arika has also released two teasers for Blair.

Fighting EX Layer is set for release in 2018.
