TimeShift demo on Marketplace now

Sierra Entertainment's time-bending FPS arrives in demo form months before release.

TimeShift has had a relatively troubled development, with the last year of development being spent completely changing the look and certain gameplay mechanics of the game; however, the game is now shaping very nicely and Xbox 360 gamers can sample the game for themselves.

A playable demo (581 MB) will enable Xbox 360 gamers to don the experimental Beta Suit and begin slowing, stopping and reversing the flow of time in order to take down a host of bad guys and defeat the time-jumping Aiden Krone.

The full game will also feature a unique multiplayer mode in which time grenades will enable the complexity of time-shifting to put a new spin on traditional fraging.

TimeShift is scheduled for release on PC and Xbox 360 on October 30 with the PS3 version set for some time in November.
