Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator is due for a 10th June release in Europe, but no date has been given for when pre-orders will go live. But you can rest assured that if you do pre-order on PSN, you willo be able to play the Guilty Gear Xrd Revelator demo immediately. But what’s in the demo? Read on.

– New characters – 3 of the new characters will be available; Jam, Johnny and Jack-O, in addition to the returning characters from Xrd -SIGN-, giving you 20 characters in all to play with. – Training Mode – Practice your skills with GGXrd REVELATOR’s excellent training mode; learn the new characters or refine your gameplay with your old favourites. – Episode Mode – Play through the Episode Mode and experience the story of the characters that lead in to the Story Mode of -REVELATOR-. – Offline VS Mode – Fight your friends on the couch or take the fight to the CPU to practice your skills offline.
