Not familiar with the update time in NZ for Xbox/Playstation store but if I remember rightly it came out the day before the official release in this region so can we expect the demo tomorrow afternoon/evening?

    They're talking about if you were to get yourself on a plane to New Zealand.

    FIFA 16 demo last year was expected to come out on Tuesday 8th September but it came out a day earlier because New Zealand are 12 hours ahead, people were playing the demo around 5pm at least on that Monday

    Never tried for the PES demo, on PC last year I had FIFA 5-7 days early thanks to holidaying in Singapore. It's worked for many others too, seen a lot of youtube videos on it.

    It's up to when the store updates mainly though. On PS is may be delayed, I don't know when NZ updates but UK is normally Wednesday afternoon so I'll be picking it up on PC first.

    The NZ and Australian stores update at very similar times... It will be around 9pm tomorrow night for me (Australia), which is midday in the UK.

    All good. It will be there about. Last year the demo became available around 9.30pm, the year before 8.30. 9pm is the time the store usually updates and has so in the past so it's an educated assumption

    It was up on Monday 7th around 5pm uk time or so on the PS4 it came out on Xbox after I think, so you think it would be the same this year and today is Monday

    The PES demo was out at about 4/5pm the day before UK release, if you had a NZ account.

    So we should expect something today. Best guess is anytime from 4pm UK time today.

    If you don't have a NZ account on PS4 it's easy to make one and use McDonalds in Wellington as your address.

    Anyone know how to download demo earlier on the Origin? This same as XO and PS4 with NZ account creation?
