Hey, everyone! We’ve got some exciting news: People of Note will be releasing on April 7th, 2026! To celebrate, we’re dropping a full, ninety-minute demo of the game as part of Steam Next Fest, so you can get your hands on the adventure early!

In addition, we’ve got an incredible new gameplay trailer that shows off some of the more in-depth tactical combat and incredible puzzle-solving you’ll be doing across the world of Note. And, while it’s only the tip of the musically-themed iceberg, but you’ll begin to see some hints of the wider story and conflict of People of Note!

The demo starts you right in the middle of the action, after Cadence has decided to leave Chordia in search of other types of musicians to add to her band. Her adventure has taken her to the Rock and Roll city of Durandis, an unfamiliar, fractured land. But here, there’s immediate conflict, and some smoke in the distance…!

Enjoy combat, progression, puzzles, exploration, puns, and of COURSE, a musical number, all in this brief look! And finally, if you find any bugs or have any suggestions, please let us know in our Discord server!

We’re very close to release, but sometimes even the smallest nudges can make a world of difference. We look forward to hearing your feedback!
