Yesterday, video game publisher Kalypso Media announced that a playable demo for “Omerta – City of Gangsters” is now available for the Xbox 360, and with that news also came the revelation that a new content update would be coming soon for both versions.
The simulation game’s single-player demo can be downloaded on the Xbox 360 through Xbox Live now and gives gamers the chance to play through two levels from the Prohibition-era gangster game. If you’ve been curious about the title, now is your chance to try it and see if the turn-based tactical combat is right for you.
