¿Cómo se dice epic en español? Eternal Strands lo sabe. 😉
The long requested Spanish localization of Eternal Strands will be live as of 8AM PT / 11AM ET / 5PM CET today!
Eager to give the game a spin first? The Prologue Demo containing the first few hours of the adventure is also now available on Steam, PlayStation 5, and the Epic Games Store.
❓Will my progress carry over from the demo to the full game?
Yes, but only on the same platform that you played the demo on.
For instance, if you played the demo on Steam and then purchased the game on Steam, your save will carry over. If you played the demo on Steam, but wish to then buy a PlayStation 5 copy, your save will not carry over.
❓Which languages will be supported in the demo?
The same languages are supported in both the demo and the full game: English and French (VO + subtitles), Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, German, and now Spanish!
Please note: Korean language is only available on STOVE and consoles, so it will not be available in the demos on Steam and the Epic Games Store. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope you can wait a bit longer for this localization on other PC platforms!
❓What accessibility options are in the demo?
Again, same as in the game! 😊 You’ll be able to browse through all of our accessibility options in the game’s menus. Some settings you can expect to see are: difficulty options, subtitle size, colour blind modes, and more.
❓Can I play the demo on Steam Deck?
You can! We are also Steam Deck verified. ✅
❓What will I get to do in the demo? Will I get to fight any of the Epics?
Yes! The demo starts at the beginning of the game and finishes at what we consider “Part 1” of the game.
You’ll get to explore one areas of The Enclave (excluding Basecamp), encounter a handful of small enemies and fight one of the Epics. You’ll have access to the crafting system, some of the various weapon types, as well as a limited set of magic spells to use in combat.
❓How long is the demo?
There isn’t a time limit to the demo, but playing through the prologue and “Part 1” quests, trying one's hand at basic combat and fighting the Epic in this part of the game can take between 1 to 3 hours depending on the player’s preferred playstyle.
❓For how long will the demo be available?
At this time, we're not planning to take the demo down! 😊
