Dragon Age II Demo Now Available For GameStop Employees, Open to Public Soon

We already somewhat knew that a Dragon Age II demo was coming soon, but now Joystiq has spotted a “secret” page on BioWare’s website where GameStop employees can download such a demo… right now. The good news for everyone else is that it will apparently be made publically available on February 23rd:

That page isn’t without treats for us non-sales advisers, though. Not only does it offer a look at the two (extra) bonuses that shoppers will receive when they pre-order the game — the Lion of Orlais Shield and the Fadeshear Sword, which we can all agree are the two most fantasy-sounding armaments of all time — but a notice at the bottom of the page says that sharing the demo “is strictly prohibited until February 23, 2011 when the demo is made available to all consumers.” We’ve contacted EA for more details on how the demo will be distributed beyond GameStop and to confirm if it’s coming to Xbox Live and PSN, as well.
