Good news if you’re twiddling your fingers waiting for the new games under the Christmas tree; two new PS4 Demos are now available to download right now. Square Enix has just released a Nier: Automata playable demo while a Gravity Rush 2 Demo has also been announced. The two demos are free to download and will give fans a taste of the upcoming games.

SIEE International is giving Gravity Rush fans an early Christmas present in the form of a free to play Gravity Rush 2 Demo. Gamers looking forward to the upcoming gravity-defying adventure game can now at least sample Kat’s new adventure over the festive holidays.

The Gravity Rush demo has two paths which players can choose to take. One has been created for players who are new to the game, while the other path is for gamers more familiar with Kat’s gravity defying powers and the game’s mechanics.

Also announced alongside the new free to play content is an anime production created by renowned anime studio Studio Khara. The ‘Gravity Rush Overture’ anime bridges the gap between the original Gravity Rush and Gravity Rush 2.

The animation video will be released on SIEE’s official YouTube channel on December 26. For now you can check out the Gravity Rush: The Animation – Overture teaser below:

There is fast paced action and multiple difficulties players will have to familiarise themselves quickly with. That includes both long and short range weapons in order to defeat the oncoming enemy machine hordes.

To celebrate the release of the Nier: Automata demo, Square Enix also revealed a new trailer which showcases some of the weapons players will get to use in the game. These turn out to be the Cypress Stick from the Dragon Quest franchise and the Engine Blade used by Noctis in Final Fantasy XV!
