Demo FAQ
Why is there no online multiplayer?
The Demo was created as a small, self-contained introduction to Hela, focused on experiencing the world, exploration, movement, interactions, and some of the game’s core mechanics. Online multiplayer is not included in this Demo experience, but it will be available in the full game.
Does the full game have online multiplayer?
Yes! The full version of Hela: Of Mice & Magic supports online co-op for up to four players. You can also play the full game solo or with a friend in local split-screen co-op.
Can I play the Demo with friends?
Yes. The Demo can be played solo or with one other player in local split-screen co-op. Online co-op is not available in the Demo. When playing solo, you can also use the Shade System, which lets you create magical copies of yourself to help solve puzzles and interact with the world.
Why are Brewing and Remedies missing?
The Demo offers a focused introduction to Hela and does not include every system or feature from the full game. Brewing & Remedies are part of the full Hela experience. In the full game, you’ll gather ingredients and take part in hands-on brewing to create magical Remedies that open up new ways to interact with and explore the world.
Is this the entire map?
No. The Demo takes place in a small section of the forest created specifically for this standalone Demo experience. The full game will feature a much larger world with more locations, paths, and secrets to discover. In the Demo, you can find a map inside the cave, but the map is part of the world itself and cannot be accessed from the game menu.
Does demo progress carry over to the full game?
No. The Demo is a short, standalone experience with its own self-contained story, created specifically as an introduction to Hela. It does not use a save system, and progress from the Demo will not carry over to the full game. The full game begins its own, much larger adventure.
Does the Hela Demo have a save system?
No. The Hela Demo does not have a save system. It tells a short, self-contained story set in a section of the forest created specifically for the Demo, designed to be enjoyed in a single play session. If you leave the Demo, your next session will start from the beginning — but don’t worry about losing your progress! The Demo area is designed to make it easy to return to places you’ve already visited, take a different path, or explore areas you may have missed and uncover more of Hela’s secrets.
