As you read this, the long awaited Battlestations: Pacific Demo should be rolling out onto Xbox LIVE and Games for Windows Marketplace everywhere.

Featuring one single player mission from the US campaign, Divine Winds of Leyte, you'll be thrown feet first into the action taking on a deadly Kamikaze attack on a US carrier fleet, before ultimately sinking one of Japan's largest battleships.

But that's not all. Also included in the demo are two of our brand new multiplayer modes, available for play offline in single player Skirmish.

Siege, where one team must hold and defend an island stronghold whilst the other must attempt to capture it before the time runs out, and Island Capture, where you'll be able to choose and set up your war machines as you see fit and fight your way through enemy defences in order to capture all important territory, unlocking specific naval supplies along the way. The first team to control all of the islands claiming the win.

But you've waited long enough, go see for yourself. Hit the links below to grab your first official taste of Battlestations: Pacific.


Xbox 360 Demo here (Via Xbox LIVE Marketplace)

Games for Windows Demo here


Mirrors:

Games for Windows Demo here (via Gamespot)

Games for Windows Demo here (via GameShadow)


Please allow time for the demo to roll out everywhere. It may not show up immediately for everyone. The PC demo will be available through a number of sources shortly (Steam, IGN, Gameshadow, Games for Windows Marketplace) and we'll be updating this post with new links and mirrors as they become active. Patience, and you shall be rewarded.


Consider this your training, as we'll all be looking out for you online when the game ships in the next couple of weeks. You have been warned.

Be sure to let us know your feedback in the forums, but most importantly... Enjoy!

Don't panic if you don't see it right away, these things take a little time to roll out everywhere. Even Microsoft's own Major Nelson's link doesn't work just yet:

It's on its way, I promise.
