  • Lost Sphear Demo Available Now on Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam

    Lost Sphear Demo Available Now on Switch, PlayStation 4, and Steam

    Do you have any idea how hard it is to write the word "Sphear?" One, it's no longer a word that is commonly used. Two, it's how it's spelled in Lost Sphear, as in, "there is a new demo available now for Lost Sphear on the PC, PS4, and Switch." I don't know what Square Enix and developer Tokyo RPG Factory are playing at here, but I am up in arms about it. Clearly.
    In the demo, players will join Kanata and his friends on their adventure and get an early look at some of the exciting

They wanted to avoid having a long delay between an announcement and the game being released, so they announced the game announcement now.
