Hello there, friends! Russell from Aksys Games here to announce that from November 25th, 2014 (that’s tomorrow) to December 8th, 2014, a Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- demo will be made available on PS4 for PlayStation Plus members!
Get an exclusive sneak peek at this revolutionary fighting game and take control of main characters, Sol Badguy and Ky Kyske, in this extreme, flashy return of one of the most legendary franchises in the fighting game universe.
So what exactly is in this preview you might ask? Well, I’m here to tell you!
For starters, the Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- demo for PS4 will give you access to the Sol Badguy and Ky Kyske storylines in Arcade Mode. Whether you’re a seasoned Guilty Gear player, one that needs a quick refresher, or a newbie to the Guilty Gear world, you’ll be able to get a taste of what’s in store for the full version of the game!
For the uninitiated, Sol Badguy is our hulking hero, a bounty hunter with an awesome weapon that moonlights as a lighter (no joke, and it’s crazy). Ky Kyske is his polar opposite, and uses his finesse and fancy moves (Lightning…LIGHT-N-ING!) to fight. Oh, he also happens to be a king…
Also available is the very extensive Training Mode! Take control of Sol Badguy and learn everything from basic moves to advanced combos and skills. Prep yourself so that when you’re pre-ordered copy comes in (wink, wink), you’ll be ready to battle it out against your friends in Network Mode, or go through the many challenging modes the full game has to offer.
What makes Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- truly revolutionary will be on full display in this demo. ARC System Works, developers of the Guilty Gear and BlazBlue series of fighting games, mixed their trademark 2D animated styles and brought it into the world of 3D. Believe it or not, what you’re playing is a 3D “drawn” game made to look and feel 2D! What does that mean? Every time you do a special attack, get ready to go for a spin as the camera brings you into the heart of the action, giving you a sometimes 360 view!
The Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- demo will be available starting tomorrow, November 25th to December 8th for PS4 Plus users, so be sure to download it and check it out! And the full experience of Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- will be available in retail stores nationwide and PlayStation Store on December 16th. The PS4 and PS3 physical copies come in two versions: a standard edition and a limited edition that includes an art book, CD, specialized box and keychain.
Thats nice…. Any slight chance that this game will also release in Europe??
#51. It will, but no one knows exactly when, of course. But do worry, they’re not forgetting EU/PAL regions.
^I meat to say don’t, ugh, oh well, lol. (These posts should have at least an edit function to fix typo words and such.)
Played the jap demo and it was great. Now I get to play the eng demo tomorrow!
yowzagabowza: “without people like me and many others, things could get way worse”
LOL!!!
What an injustice we need joystick support for this awesome title! Wish PS4 supported PS3 joysticks :(
Hey I was curious any plans for more dlc characters? Just curious since some of the orginal cast is missing. I miss my jam :(
Is the demo out yet? What time today? I’m still waiting, it’s 2:30am here for me. I pre-order the game just to support the game, needs more support so it can keep getting better. Anyone who wants to befriend me to play, feel free. ^~^
Wait what? Jam won’t be in the game?! Really?
Russle, you aren’t as good as some others who replies more often. So please reply the time of the demo and I’ll love you more lol
Suhn-Sol-Jashin, it says right in the second line that it is for PS4. Perhaps try to read the articles next time?
Nope, this article is a lie, all liesssss it is the 25th now and I still don’t see it!!!! (T ^ T) lol
Hi Russel,
Thanks!
One question though:
There are any chances of Aksys Games bringing Guilgy Gear 2 Overture to PS platforms, to fill in the story gap between Guilty Gear X and Xrd?
That would be really awesome!
Cool!
Is there a specific time for release? I can’t find it now!
looks awesome,fighting games are always welcome
For those waiting to get the demo, its not up get, give it a couple hours, it’ll be ready.
Oh, and GG2 Overture was a exclusive to the other console only, sorry “markshneider”.
Someone message me when this goes live so I can download it I’m stuck at slaving and can’t keep checking my phone, until break or lunch
Is a shame PS3 doesn’t get the demo – I’ve been on the fence about grabbing the game, and the demo could have given me the push to pre-order it that I’ve been looking for. :/
Anyone know the time it should be dropping? I only asked because i dont see the demo in the store yet.
I’m super excited for this. I used to have marathon sessions with my brother and friends on ggx2 reload for Dreamcast and PC back in the day. I wonder if the PS4 demo will have network code? Any how it looks great. I’m hoping Baiken is released as DLC. I’ll download it today when the PS store refreshes around 2 PM PST.
Btw, I do not think it’s a good idea to lock a demo behind the PS plus paywall. It seems kinda greedy and you lose out on potential customers. Just my two cents, as I’ll be picking up copies for myself and to gift.
does anyone see it online? cannot find the demo =/
im definitely intrigued at how this 360 camera works. cant wait to test it out on the ps4
+gold_Og_Roger -> Yeah sucks some people won’t get to play unless it has share play 8D maybe play network local VS
Demo is up now guys, search “Xrd” on the PS Web Store, DL it and enjoy! X3

Amazing Demo! The PS4’s recording did a great job too, however it’s just to brag to my friends who can’t try it yet :P http://youtu.be/nHkuT-5Be1M
Sony is really dropping the ball on helping to advertise GGXRD. I mean, it couldn’t even warrant an spot on the Spotlight section on the PSN store or the What’s New area? It would have brought a lot of new blood into seeing and trying it. If I wasn’t on the constant lookout for this game, I wouldn’t even known this demo came out due to the measly ads it has. It’s expected for an Japanese fighting game, ESPECIALLY an Aksys game, but I just had to say something.
U.U i can’t download it
Do want it!! When will it be out on the Store!! My hands are itching for this game! xD
