Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
A demo for PixelJunk Monsters 2 is now available on the Japanese Switch eShop. It should be offered in other regions soon as well, but if you can’t wait, you simply need a Nintendo Account to access it early. The eShop listing for the full game mentions English support, so we assume that applies to the demo as well.
The PixelJunk Monsters 2 demo takes up 853MB of space. Look for the full game on May 24.
