Dishonored 2 free demo features the first three levels, lets you keep your progress

We may not get as many demos as we used to back in the day - you know, when they came on discs attached to magazines - but at least when we do, they're pretty good. Case in point: a "free trial" for Dishonored 2 lets you play the first three missions of the campaign as either Emily Kaldwin or Corvo Attano.

The demo is available now on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. All you need to do is head to your platform's respective digital storefront, download the free trial, and enjoy. An extra bonus for those of you who could be swayed to pick up a full copy: you can carry your progress over should you decide to purchase the complete version.

Demos may not come on discs anymore, but turns out they can still be pretty rad.
