PS Store Gets Free PS5 Demo for Remaster of Beloved Vita Game

PS Store recently dropped a new free demo that brings a beloved 2014 PS Vita game to the PS5. Freedom Wars Remastered‘s release itself was a surprise because Sony made the rare move of giving its blessing to Bandai Namco Entertainment to release the title on multiple platforms. If you missed it on the Vita, you can now try it without spending a penny.

Freedom Wars Remastered’s free PS Store demo brings cult classic Vita game to PS5

For some reason, we have not spotted a PS4 version of the demo on the PS Store even though Freedom Wars Remastered is available on the last-gen console. The full game, however, remains cross-buy, meaning you’ll have access to both PS5 and PS4 versions should you decide to make a purchase.

The demo is single-player only, so don’t expect access to online multiplayer. You can play the beginning of the game until Level 2 stage. Save data cannot be carried over to the full game.

The remaster comes with the following new features:

High-resolution textures
4K resolution support (PS5)
Added difficulty level settings
Overhauled weapon crafting system

Developed by Dimps, the original Freedom Wars released to generally positive reviews and garnered a cult following. Here on PlayStation LifeStyle, we awarded the game a 7/10, with praise for its premise and setting.
