And now, a new game demo has arrived, which is none other than one of the best role-playing games, "Persona 5 Royal."

PlayStation Plus Premium Adds 'Persona 5 Royal' Free Trial

As per a recent report by ComicBook.com, Sony added "Persona 5 Royal" to its roster of free trial gaming titles for PlayStation Plus Premium.

And as such, its subscribers could now download and test out the RPG game without spending more money on the service.

ComicBook notes that the demo of the game lasts for at least four hours, allowing its players to check out the ins and outs of the enhanced release of "Persona 5."

Sony is only giving away this free trial for a limited time. However, PS Plus subscribers still have enough time to try it out as it would be available for the rest of the year or in 2023.

It is worth noting that the game demo is set to leave the gaming service on January 31, 2024. So you still have nearly a year to try it out yourself.

Tech Radar notes that the PS Plus Premium costs $17.99 or £13.49 monthly, or if you want to pay $99.99 yearly.

CHIBA, JAPAN - SEPTEMBER 20: An attendee walks past the PlayStation logo in the Sony Interactive Entertainment booth during the Tokyo Game Show 2018 on September 20, 2018 in Chiba, Japan.

Meanwhile, the PS Plus Essential only sells for $9.99 or £6.99 per month or $59.99 or £49.99 a year. On the other hand, the "Extra" variant sports a subscription fee of $14.99 monthly or $99.99 annually.

All that said, the Premium tier is the most expensive variant, but it now offers a free trial of the "Persona 5 Royal."

On top of that, ComicBook.com reports that the subscription service only offers the PS5 version of the game. With that said, the demo does not provide the PS4 counterpart. So if you are looking to test out the latter via PS Plus, you are out of luck.
