Those who don’t want to wait for the March 7, 2013 Japan release date of Soul Sacrifice, or the not yet known NA release date, will be glad to hear that a free trial is incoming. The Witch Trials, a clever name for the free trial offer, will be available on December 20, 2012.

 In this trial, which will allow you to play through the first part of the game, you will be able to keep the items you have collected. This means when you purchase the full version of the game, everything you have collected during your trial will carry over with your save file! Not only is this a great way to try Soul Sacrifice out, it also puts you in the position to start the game with at least a bit of an edge.

Those who have been keeping up with this game and its gameplay know: when it was shown off at the Tokyo Game Show 2012, the multiplayer was somewhat lacking. We have been assured since then that the multiplayer is vastly improved upon. This trial will give us all a chance to play and see this fact with our own eyes!
