Shadow of the Road Invites Players to Take Part in the Demo

Shadow of the Road demo is here to test your skills in wielding the blade, bow, magic and machinery.

Coming from developer Another Angle Games and publisher Owlcat Games, Shadow of the Road is a story-driven, turn-based RPG currently in development. Try it out on your own by participating in the demo, featuring a clash of magic and technology in alternate reality 1868 Japan. Assemble your team from a diverse set of characters and test your skills against yōkai and steampunk contraptions alike.

Follow Satoru the Samurai and Akira the Ranger through a political debacle at the Ryokan Yasumi, then travel to the Sugiyama estate and recruit Ishida, Asuke, and Toshiro – each a formidable ally in their own right. This Demo release introduces the player to the story, following the inciting incident, and offering a chance to get to know the main characters.

Check out our first impressions to find out more! Whether you love the pseudo-historical setting, Japanese culture, deep narrative or tactical turn-based combat, then this is the game for you.

“This isn’t your first duel – you see a Demo, go beat it. Shadow of the Road Demo available now!”
