Nintendo Switch Online subscribers are getting the chance to playtest an upcoming game at the end of July, in the second time this particular game has been shown off. Like last time, Nintendo isn’t saying specifically what the game is, simply calling it “a service for Nintendo Switch Online,” but it did clarify that it’s the same game, which leaked during the original test, despite both rounds asking players not to share any information about what they see.
The second round playtest will run from July 28 to Aug. 10 and allow 40,000 players to participate, but you’ll need to be quick to get in. Outside of Japan, entries will be taken on a first-come, first-served basis. According to Nintendo’s website, you can start creating an application on July 18 at 6 p.m. ET, but you won’t be able to actually submit it until July 21 at 11 a.m. ET. That gives you the weekend to get the application in order before what will certainly be a frenzied rush to actually submit it in time. Playtesters also need to have an active subscription to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, the membership tier that includes GameCube and Nintendo 64 games.
