A demo for SSX on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 will be released next week, creative director Todd Batty has revealed on the SSX Ubercast.

According to Batty, Xbox 360 owners and US PSN account holders will be able to download the demo from February 21, with the demo hitting the European PlayStation Network a day later.

While the demo only presents you with one playable character, Zoe, you can unlock Mac by referring a friend. Ridenet, SSX's take on Autolog, will be enabled, four events will be available, and you'll be able to take part in two tutorials.

SSX is due for release on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in Europe on March 2.
