A Heavenly Sword demo should be coming to the Playstation Store soon according to the game’s head of production Mat Hart on the games official IGN Blog.

While answering many different questions from Heavenly Sword fans, Hart tackled a query concerning a downloadable demo. "I can confirm that we are, of course, going to be releasing a demo for Heavenly Sword... and soon," he said. "This will be downloadable via the Playstation Network... so keep an eye out for this in the very near future. And I mean very near future!"

Hart also confirmed that, while Ninja Theory discussed releasing a special-edition of the game with Sony, it was decided to "cram the retail release with as many extras as the developer could fit onto Blu-ray". These extras include the first two episodes of a special animated series exploring the history of Heavenly Sword.

Finally, Hart confirmed he’s already hoping to produce a series of Heavenly Sword titles. "The story of the Heavenly Sword was developed with a much longer arc in mind than just a single game. In the event that the demand for a sequel is great enough the next ’chapter’ will be very exciting indeed!" 

This news should no doubt please Sony fans who are desparate to try out one of the consoles biggest exclusives, in the meantime if you want more on Heavenly Sword then check out our page dedicated to it.
