The free PC demo of Eternal Strands will be available for players on Steam and Epic Games Store today, January 21st, at 11 am ET. Your demo progress will carry over if you decide to play the full game. Wavers, it’s time to discover The Enclave!
The demo starts at the beginning of the game and finishes at what the devs consider to be “Part 1” of the game. You’ll get to explore two areas of The Enclave (excluding Basecamp), encounter a handful of small enemies and fight up to three types of Epics. You’ll have access to the crafting system, all three base weapon types (Sword & Shield, Bow & Arrow, Two-Hander) as well as a limited set of magic spells to use in combat.
At the moment, the demo is only available on Steam and the Epic Game Store. The full game releases next week, January 28th, and will be available on more major platforms: Steam, Epic Games Store, Xbox PC/Windows Store, Xbox Series S|X, Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation 5 and Stove.
