Yes, you read it right, Dragon Age II demo is now available from Xbox Live Marketplace. In the demo, which serves as the prologue, you as Hawke can choose, in true RPG vein, between three different classes. The successor to Bioware's epic RPG yarn, Dragon Age II releases March 8 in the US and March 11 in Europe for PS3, 360 and PC. The demo is a relatively light download at under 2 GB. You can download it here.
Finishing the demo gives access to a key new location in the world of Dragon Age, Kirkwall, befriending Isabela, a romantic interest in the game who is also a deadly smuggler. Beating the demo also unlocks Hayder's Razor, which is an ancient dwarven blade that increases health, mana, and combat abilities, in the full release of Dragon Age II. The PC version is expected to hit later today, and the PSN version will come to Europe tomorrow.
BioWare's Dragon Age II demo just went up on Xbox Live, for those curious to sample the roleplaying sequel's new action-slanted battle engine. The PC and PlayStation 3 versions weren't available at the time of this post, but should be available later today.
Microsoft's description of the demo doesn't tell much, just the standard ballyhoo about new combat techniques and better graphics. BioWare's definitely playing up the whole "experience...shapes itself around every decision you make" angle. We can hope. Dragon Age Origins only adapted to your "decisions" superficially. The trunk story was pretty much unassailable.
