Besides Dragon Ball, Akira Toriyama created the manga Sandland. In 2024, it will not only be adapted into an anime but will also receive its own action RPG. You can now play the demo.
What game are we talking about? Sand Land is a new action role-playing game that will be released on PS4/PS5, Xbox, and Steam. You can get the full game starting April 26, 2024, but you can already play the demo version.
You will take on the role of Belzebub, the prince of the underworld, and embark on a quest with his crew to find legendary sources. The desert world of Sand Land suffers from extreme water scarcity.
The short trailer gives you a first impression of the gameplay that awaits you in Sand Land:
Players of the Sand Land demo receive items for the full version
Why is it worth playing the demo? While you probably won’t play any part of the main story here, and your save data won’t transfer to the full version, it should still be worth taking advantage of the free demo.
Even though the demo seems relatively standalone, you’ll get a first feel for the world of Sand Land, the gameplay, and the characters, and also secure some bonus items for the full version:
- 30 pieces of second-class steel
- 30 second-class screws
With these parts, you will be able to improve your vehicles later in the game.
Bonus items could be useful in the full version
At first glance, this may not sound like much, but what the parts are good for and how valuable they ultimately are will become clear later. It should definitely be worth securing these parts for free if you plan to get Sand Land anyway.
After all, vehicles play a significant role in this action RPG. You will use them to navigate through the desert area and utilize their various abilities in exploration and combat to survive.
There was also some information beforehand about the playable content offered by the demo version. Here, you will explore a limited part of the map, meet the characters Belzebub, Rao, and Sheef, and can use the combat tank, armor, and motorcycle.
In addition to the new role-playing game, you can also expect an anime based on the manga: The creator of Dragon Ball is releasing a new anime series in 2024 – The movie was already a box office hit
