PS5 and PS4 gamers can try out an exciting new action game for free through the PS Store. Hyperwired is a fast-paced roguelike shooter that pays homage to classic arcade titles. The demo is now available worldwide.
Hyperwired is a single-player experience, so a PS Plus subscription isn’t necessary to play the demo. However, Premium members can use cloud streaming to jump in without downloading the game.
An official description states, “Space has fallen into darkness. You are the last spark.” Players navigate through procedurally generated sectors, dodge overwhelming bullet-hell chaos, and confront massive bosses. But be warned: your energy is limited. To survive, you’ll need to plug in.
The game is set to officially launch in summer 2026 across multiple platforms, including PS5, PS4, Xbox One, Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. A specific release date has not yet been announced.
Hyperwired was developed using GameMaker. Publishers Selecta Play and Entalto Publishing describe it as reinventing traditional top-down shooters with its unique “tethered” mechanic. Players pilot specialized ships that must physically connect to power sockets to recharge their weapons and systems.
