If you're not quite sold on Capcom's upcoming action game, Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess, then you may be pleased to learn that a playable demo's out now on PS5 and PS4. The publisher's already shown plenty of gameplay footage for this one, but it does feel like one of those titles where actually playing it could make all the difference.
The demo doesn't have a time limit or anything like that, and it's set across several of the game's stages. Kunitsu-Gami got some glowing hands-on previews from Summer Game Fest 2024 — including our own — so we'd definitely recommend checking the demo out.
Kunitsu-Gami is out later this month, on the 19th July — but will you be giving the demo a shot? Protect your priestess at all costs in the comments section below.

Added to my library! Looking forward to giving it a go
Damn. I was hoping they’d announce a physical version.
Downloading right now. Buying regardless though.
I just finished with the demo, completed all 4 stage and my impression: this game steal my heart 😍
Gameplay wise, it's a unique combine of hack & slash with RTS / tower defense. At first, i thought the gameplay will be repetitive; just hack & slash the yokai and bring the maiden to purify the gate. But then it offers more variety when they introduced:
So hack & slash alone isn't enough to clear the stage because you also need to rely on the villagers (apply the right job for them like Archer, Woodcutter, Shaman, etc) and put them in the right spot while manage your resource and protect your Maiden.
What i also like, there's a gallery mode where you can view the yokai you already beat and see their 3D model as well read the lore behind them.
Oh, and the artstyle is gorgeous!!!
This is probably Capcom most beautiful game with RE Engine.
Sadly...i'm not surprised if this game get a lot of 6 or 7's from gaming journos who sucks at the game then write "the control is clunky, 6/10" or "the characters doesn't talk and not enough story" :/
@PuppetMaster Thanks for the in depth comment. I don’t know anything about this game other than there’s a demo. You did make it sound a bit like the tower defense missions in Monster Hunter Rise, which I didn’t play too many of b/c that’s not why I play MH but you’ve intrigued me. Now if only I could find the link.😂
@rjejr You mean download link for the demo?
@rjejr I had to go to the games website and find the link. https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP0102-PPSA21640_00-KUNITSUGAMID1000
Just finished the demo myself and Whoa... not what I expected.
It was fantastic! Went from a what is this...? to insta-buy.....
Very hard to describe (although PuppetMaster did a great job)
I never heard of this game before the I played the demo and now (Along with Shadow of the Erdtree) might be my favorite game of the year. If you have any interest at all, download the demo and see. Great game!
@invisibot @PuppetMaster I couldn't find the link so just went into the app on my tablet and looked in the store under "Demos" and it was the first one, but thanks. 👍
I played it, the demo, for about 30 minutes yesterday, not really to my liking. The sort of 2D but not really as they hid away half the villagers threw me off, as well, just did about everything else. 😂
