The Alters
Give The Alters a bit of a run and see how the various Alters can flow in the demo for the game
There is still a whole lot of waiting we have to do for The Alters, but with the year ending and it being that time of year, it looks as if 11 Bit Studios is ready to give us all a bit of a gift. That gift being that there is now a demo live for all on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC so we can start the weird journey this game is going to give us. Well, more start the weird look and go down a few of the paths that The Alters will allow for us to go down since this is just a demo. So, if you have been up to speed on the game and itching to get a chance with it, now is the time and you can download the demo as soon as you are done reading all of this here.
Since you are going to need a bit of time to actually download this demo for The Alters, let us dig back into what the game offers up along the way out there for you. It is a game where we wake up in a crashed spaceship and need to find a way to get off this weird new world. Jan, our character, does not have a crew but stumbles upon a Quantum Computer that allows Jan to create “Alters” based on different choices that Jan could have made in life. It is from there that we get to wrestle with the concept of all of this while also trying to wrangle all the Jans in so we can work together and get off the planet and back to wherever it is we were supposed to be. Here is a new teaser for all of this to look at and wrap up your wait for the demo to finally download.
The Alters — Demo
The Alters will be released in 2025 for PCs and consoles. The game will also launch on PC Game Pass and Xbox Game Pass.
After crash-landing on a hostile planet under a blazing sun, Jan must survive in a high-tech mobile base designed for a crew he doesn’t have. His luck changes when he discovers Rapidium, a resource that, when paired with the Quantum Computer, lets him create Alters—alternate versions of himself based on changing the pivotal decisions from his past.
The Alters aren’t just workers—they’re individuals with their own skills, emotions, and motivations. While essential for keeping the base functional, crafting tools, and mining resources, their distinct personalities can spark tension. Despite their differences, they share a common goal: survive, escape, and rely only on themselves.
The game explores the timeless question: “What if I had chosen differently?” This core theme fuels a deeply personal and thought-provoking narrative as players navigate Jan’s struggle for survival.
Have you been waiting for your chance to play The Alters or will you hold out until 2025 to play the full game instead? Will any of this progress carry over to the full game or will we need to make the shame choices again to pick up where we all left off? How many different ways will we get to choose differently along the way in the game and will we need a whiteboard to mark them all down out there? Float on down to the comment section to discuss all of this and everything else that we have to share for the game. We will be playing the demo for The Alters and grabbing as many of the newer updates as possible for the game to share. Please keep on checking back in here for all of those little bits and see if the game is going to live up to the hype we have been building for it.
