Heads up for The Legend of Heroes: Trails beyond the Horizon fans: a demo has just gone live on Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch. It can be downloaded from their respective pages on the Nintendo eShop.
NIS America says that this is a story demo, offering the opening of the game. NIS America is also providing a battle demo on PlayStation platforms, but for whatever reason, this seems to be skipping Nintendo systems. On the bright side, progress made in the demo can be transferred to the full release after installing a day one patch.
