A second Wo Long Fallen Dynasty demo will arrive later this month on February 24, KOEI Tecmo has announced.
The news was announced through the game’s official Twitter account some hours ago. Unlike the previous demo, this second demo will also be made available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. A pleasant surprise for PC and last-gen console players for sure.
According to KOEI Tecmo, save data from the demo will transfer to the final game once available. In addition, those who complete the demo will get the “Crouching Dragon Helmet” DLC in the full game.

As can be read in our demo hands-on preview, we have high expectations from this game, and it will be interesting to see which improvements have been made in this second demo. Here’s what we wrote in our preview:
Even though Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty is setting out to be a challenging game, Team Ninja implemented some systems that will allow players who are not action game experts to enjoy their title. By using Tiger Seals, which can be found pretty easily in the demo, players can summon an NPC ally and other human players to help them out. Even though the AI isn’t particularly smart, they do a decent job of drawing the enemy’s attention, so having the option to summon them is definitely welcome. Taking down enemies unseen is also a viable option to reduce their numbers before fighting a particularly strong enemy head on. Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty’s combat seems to be geared more towards duels, so fighting multiple enemies at the same time can be very, very challenging.
Multiple playthroughs of the demo have sold me on Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, but some of the gameplay mechanics, such as the streamlining of the combat, which doesn’t allow much player expression even with multiple Arts and Spells, and the major emphasis on parrying, can put some players off. As Team Ninja is gathering feedback with the demo, however, I expect some things to change in the final release, but even if things do not change that much, I do not doubt that Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty will be among the finest action games coming in 2023, even with its lack of broader appeal.
Wo Long Fallen Dynasty launches in early 2023 on PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox One. The game will also be available through Xbox Game Pass on launch day.
