Nintendo is still rolling with free game trials for Switch Online users, and this latest one is a bit of a surprise: it’s an indie game not developed/published by Nintendo!

Over in Japan, Switch Online users can try Celeste for free from May 18 at 12:00 JST to May 24 at 18:00 JST. All you have to do is have a Switch Online membership on your Japanese account, then download it on the Celeste landing page under “trial.” The full game is free to play for that time period, and it’s a totally feasible exercise to actually finish it during that stretch.

In case you’re utterly confused, “Game Trials” are actually a perk for Switch Online users and are part of the “mystery block” portion . If you haven’t used this perk you aren’t alone, as Nintendo tends to prioritize Japan when it comes to trials, .
