Last week, we reported that Root Film would be getting a demo on the Japanese eShop on July 9th. As the day arrives, the mystery visual-novel from developer Kadokawa Games has expectedly received a free demo alongside the ability to preload (with a 20% discount).

The first chapter of Rintarou Yagumo's story is playable in the demo, alongside the ability to go hands-on with the game's “Syntesthesia” and “MAX Mode” mechanics.

A western release of Root Film is also planned for the future from publisher PQube.
