SPORTAL Demo Available Now Ahead of Steam Next Fest

SPORTAL Demo Unleashes Weaponized Sports Mayhem before the first whistle of Steam Next Fest

The SPORTAL Demo is now available on Steam, giving players the chance to dive headfirst into the blood-soaked mayhem of weaponized sports equipment ahead of Steam Next Fest, starting October 13, 2025. This is where chaos takes the field. Every level is a fight for survival and an opportunity to upgrade your arsenal to crank up the destruction.

This is your front-row seat to a blood-soaked slugfest where footballs explode on impact, hockey pucks ricochet between enemies, and monsters never play by the rules. Choose your gear and fight your way through a gauntlet of grotesque creatures in a demo packed with carnage - the perfect way to get a head start before the festival begins.

What’s Inside the Demo

Step into a twisted arena where every weapon is sports-themed and every enemy wants you dead. Use a hockey stick to launch pucks that bounce between clustered enemies, or rain destruction from a distance with high-impact lacrosse shots. Each level throws you into waves of grotesque mutants, pushing you to stay mobile, switch tactics, and keep the carnage flowing across 9 varied stages.

As you fight, you’ll unlock and equip a range of sports accessories as upgrades - backpacks, shoulder pads, and more - each influencing your stats and weapons. Whether you favor speed, survivability, or sheer destructive force, you’ll shape your playstyle with every pickup.

At the end of the demo, you’ll face off against a brutal boss - the showdown that caps off your bloody rampage. And this is only the beginning: the full game brings even more weapons, upgrades, arenas, and a monstrous cast ripped straight from 1950s horror B-movies.

Wishlist SPORTAL now and get ready for the opening whistle.
