Killzone 2 demo confirmed for February (CVG 6/1/09)

Sony has confirmed to CVG that the Killzone 2 demo, being released in the US on a pre-order-only basis, will be released on the UK PS Store in the "normal manner", i.e. free for all to play.

Over in US, eager beavers will need to front cash for a pre-order at retailer GameStop, in exchange for a download code that'll snag them the demo.


This offer, as Edge-Online reports, will begin on February 3, and will remain limited to pre-orders until the game's release on February 27, after which the demo will be opened to everyone.

In the UK, however, Sony has told CVG: "We are getting [the demo] but it will be released via the normal manner on the PSN," meaning there's no pre-order necessary over here.

It couldn't confirm the release date for the demo, but the "normal manner" would insinuate its PSN release before the full game hits retailers.

We doubt it'll be on February 3 though, because US gamers will simply download it from our store and that'd mess up SCEA's plans.
