''Sonic Adventure 2: Trial Version'' is dated May 3rd, 2001 - 26 days before the build date of the final Japanese release of the game (May 29th, 2001).

Claimed differences by Segagaga from  to the other "''The Trial''" include: [[:sega:Dreamcast Jump Pack|Puru Puru Pack]] support, different textures, different titles, 2 player mode (Sonic and Shadow playable), and a FMV video of ''Sonic Adventure 2''.[http://www.segagagadomain.com/dreamcast-ntsc_0/sonic2trial.htm] The differences are not confirmable yet as no dump of the trial demo has been made avaiable online.

Sonic Adventure 2: Trial Version, not to be confused Sonic Adventure 2: The Trial, is a trial version of Sonic Adventure 2 for the Sega Dreamcast. It was given to select Japanese stores during early 2001. It was dumped and released on May 21st, 2013.

Sonic Adventure 2: Trial Version is dated May 3rd, 2001 - 26 days before the build date of the final Japanese release of the game (May 29th, 2001). Consequently, most of the differences are merely superficial, for example, there is a slightly different title screen and much of the game is simply closed off to the general public.

Unlike Sonic Adventure 2: The Trial, which saw a more widespread release, Trial Version includes Puru Puru Pack support, different textures, different titles, two-player mode (Sonic and Shadow being playable), and a full motion video clip of Sonic Adventure 2[1].

Curiously, the back cover of the box misprints Sonic's name.
