Does Unicorn Overlord Demo Progress Carry Over To The Full Game?

Vanillaware's tactical role-playing game, , will be released on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X/S on March 8, 2024. A demo for the game was announced, during the Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase on February 21, coming to the Nintendo Switch that same day, and to other platforms the day after offering players the chance to jump into for nearly two weeks before the game's full launch.

A five-hour time limit was set on the demo, which could be checked at any time from 's pause menu, and once it ran out, players would be kicked from the demo.

features a rich story centered around Prince Alain and his allies working to reclaim their land from General Valmore and the Zenoiran Empire, and there are many secrets to uncover across the game's world to learn more about its expansive lore.

Alongside these missions, there are several Side, Overworld, and Liberation Quests available for players to meet more characters and further explore the game's map, and players are free to complete these in any order once the tutorial missions have ended.

Fortunately, as stated on the Xbox storefront, 's demo progress carries over into the main game, so those who played the demo will be able to pick up where they left off on March 8.
