Capcom has announced that a demo for Dragon’s Dogma will be arriving on the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Marketplace next week.

Those living in North America will be able to get their hands on the demo first, with it appearing on the PSN and XBLM on the 24th of April. Europeans will have to wait until the 25th before they can trial it out.

The demo will let you try out two different classes: the fighter and the strider. You will also get access to some of the NPCs, as you take on two different bosses. The fighter demo will see you take on a quest from the game’s prologue, while the strider demo will see you enter the plains surrounding the capital of Gransys.

The demo will also allow you to create your characters now and import the data into the full game when it releases in May on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
