Bandai Namco revealed that Switch and PS5 players will be able to test out the crossover strategy game Super Robot Wars Y with a demo. It will be available to download on the eShop and PlayStation Store starting on August 8, 2025. This is also a trial in which you get a bonus for playing and can keep using the save file in the full $59.99 game.
