The demo, titled Sangokushi BOND Banjo Enbu Demo, is available until June 22. It features a new mode called Banjo Enbu, which consists of 14 stages of increasing difficulty. Players clear stages to acquire generals and use them to tackle harder challenges. The demo includes three playable strategists: Guo Jia, Da Qiao, and Zhuge Liang. This version replaces the asynchronous ranked battle mode from a previous playtest held in May. The full game is scheduled for release in summer 2026 at a price of 800 yen. It supports online versus modes, including real-time and asynchronous battles, and will feature over 100 generals with original illustrations. The developer, Get Wrapped Up, was founded in May 2025 by Yasuhiro Nishiyama, known for creating the arcade strategy game Sangokushi Taisen at Sega. The game emphasizes fair, short-term strategic battles without action controls or pay-to-win elements.","whyItMatters":"The demo marks the first public hands-on opportunity for a title from a veteran arcade strategy designer, shifting from a free-to-play playtest to a fixed-price model with no pay-to-win mechanics.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe demo adds voice lines during tactic activations, a feature not present in the May playtest.
