Update: A demo for Season: A Letter to the Future has now appeared in the Demo Festival tab as the PS5, PS4 title confirms its late January 2023 release date.
Original story: The PS Store is hosting a Demo Festival that looks set to bring a number of pre-release testers to PS5 users as part of The Game Awards. The tab has just appeared on the PS Store, and contains two demos at the time of writing. Those are for Bramble: The Mountain King and You Suck at Parking. However, the list should grow since a Forspoken demo is all but confirmed at this point.
There's no mention of an expiry date on either listing right now, but since the promotion is tied to The Game Awards, it's possible they may disappear sooner rather than later. A new PS Store sale that ties in with Geoff Keighley's show is also live now, and its deals are available until 12th December 2022.
We'll update this article should any more demos appear. What do you hope to play early? Share your hopes in the comments below.

Oh, this is cool!
Makes so much sense to have them all in one place, rather than searching for them.
Also easier to just grab them all at the same time.
I haven’t had a lot of luck with demos in general — sometimes they help, but often they don’t give an accurate feeling of the final product and can misrepresent a game positively or negatively. Nevertheless, Forspoken is a game that is so bewildering that I might try the demo. Hadn’t heard of these other two games though.
Very cool indeed.
Credit to whoever alerted you 👀😁
It makes me more interested in checking out a bit of the awards, as I'm sure some features will say "now playable as a demo on PS5" at the end of the video. Including Forspoken
The bonus sale isn't too bad either
They've also added quite a few new trial versions, at least some of those games haven't been available in my region so far, e.g. Ghostwire Tokyo. @get2sammyb @LiamCroft
Nice to see a demo for Bramble, that game looked very interesting so gonna try the demo for sure
Edit: finished the Bramble demo and while its short, it certainly didn't disappoint.
Sony: We make great games like Uncharted, God of War, Horizon, Spiderman, Gran Turismo, Ratchet & Clank
Also Sony: We make demos available for all the games (you've never heard of) 😝
Cool to see them promote some lesser known titles.
But this should be standard. I know they added a demo section at long last a few days ago, but should have been there from the start.
