A demo should be coming sometime in the next few weeks, although you'll be limited to a Type VII boat, and won't be able to play past 1943.

Probably.

I remember having tried SH4 with a demo I downloaded before buying it (the game did run ok and I later upgraded the graphic card to a one generation bigger one just for the fun of turning every graphic option up).

It was a nice surprise because as I remember, there was no demo for SH3 but there was one for SH4.

I loathe those limited demos where you only get to play part of the game.

Oh, wait.

I don't recall SH3 or 4 ever having a playable Demo.

Why would Ubi do one know ?

To the best of my knowledge none of the SH games have had a demo...I have never seen it. I dont think theres budget for it or maybe it not easy to limit a game like this?

Ive seen complex games have demo but for example they are limited to say 30min gameplay.I dont know how complex it is but it will be nice to have a try before buying the game.

Ah, dont forget that in order to play the demo you'll have to open an UBI account and stay connected all the time

Joking, but who knows .....
