A demo has been released for both Europe and North America that plays out a bit differently than the full game. Basically, you play out short quests that require you to kill certain monsters to obtain drops or just kill bosses. The max level for your characters in the demo is 20 and there are only a certain number of job classes available, with the max job level being 4.
The main draw of the demo is the Play Bonuses, of which there are a total of seven. These will grant you items and equipment that will help you in getting started in the final game. They generally require you to kill all the bosses, although there's one for restoring Norende Village to the max in the demo (more on that later).
Play Bonuses
As you perform certain tasks within the demo, you will be granted Play Bonuses that can be carried over into the full game. There are seven in total and they are as follows:
| Name | Items | How To Get |

| Caldislan Recovery Set | Potion x3, Hi-Potion x1 | Defeat Melusine |
