For perhaps the first time since its introduction, Nintendo will hold a playtest for Nintendo Switch Online. Available from October 23rd, 6 PM PT, to November 5th, 4:59 PM PT, the playtest is for a “new feature” coming to the service at an unknown date.

Applicants can register on this website from October 10th, 8 PM PT, to October 15th, 7:59 PM. They must be 18 years old and have a subscription to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. If the total number of participants exceeds a certain amount, those living in Japan will be selected via a raffle.

Outside Japan, the playtest is available to the US, UK, France, Germany, Spain, and Italy. It’s first come, first serve, so apply as quickly as possible once the website goes live. Upon entry, testers will download specific Nintendo Switch software. There’s no information on what the new feature could be, but stay tuned for more details in the coming months.
