Batomon Showdown demo
Patch 1.2.0 / Balance 24. Facts below are tied to a source checked on 2026-10-01. Anything still open is marked unconfirmed.
The demo that is still online
Direct answer: you can play a free browser demo. berrymint’s itch.io text says “This is the demo of Batomon Showdown, a creature collector auto battler!” Platforms is HTML5, the engine tag is Godot, and the content field says no generative AI was used. The canvas noted in our embed check is 960 by 540.
On desktop, the home page’s Play Demo button injects the itch.io embed only after a click. Microphone and top-navigation permissions are not granted. A direct itch.io fallback remains below the player. On phones the main button goes to the download page, because touch support in this HTML5 build is not verified: official browser demo.
How the demo differs from the game you buy
The full game’s current stamp is v1.2.0 / Balance 24 / Steam build 25600878, released on Steam and Android on 15 September 2026. The browser demo is a separate HTML5 upload. Two itch devlogs are titled “New Trainers! Public demo out on Steam!” (27 April 2026) and “Batomon Showdown Update - 2 New Trainers!” (10 April 2026). Those posts describe the demo era, not the September full release.
I am not claiming a feature-by-feature gap. The safe statement is: browser demo for a free look, Steam or Google Play for the live season.
Touch screens
I have not completed a phone playtest of the HTML5 canvas. If the embed does not take taps, install the Android build or the Windows build instead of forcing the demo.

Questions on this page
Is the Steam demo still up?
Community platform notes say the Steam demo was removed around the end of Season 0, the day before the 1.0 launch. I could not reopen a Steam demo app from the 4557380 store payload. The browser demo on itch.io was still online.
Does the demo include the full 1.2.0 roster?
Unconfirmed. berrymint has not published a line-by-line demo versus full-game cut list. Expect a shorter HTML5 build, then use Steam or Google Play for the current game.
