However, not everyone is able to sign up for the playtest, but there is a good chance you can if you’re a Nintendo Switch fanatic. Sign-ups are limited to active Switch Online members, and you can’t just sign up so you can try out the playtest. Those eligible to take part must be subscribed to Nintendo Switch Online and have the Expansion Pack add-on before October 9. The announcement on Nintendo’s website reads: “We will perform a test called Nintendo Switch Online: Playtest Program related to a new feature for the Nintendo Switch Online service offered for the Nintendo Switch system. “Customers will need to download exclusive software to their own Nintendo Switch system in order to participate.” The playtest is only open to residents of Japan, USA, UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain. You must also be 18 or older during the testing period if you wish to take part. The playtest will last around two weeks, and take place between Wednesday, October 23, 2024, and Tuesday, November 5, 2024. There is a limit of around 10k spaces for participants to sign up for the playtest, and for most countries this is on a first-come-first-served basis. If you fulfill all of these criteria and you want to sign up for the playtest yourself, you can do so via Nintendo’s website. The sign-up period lasts from October 10, 2024, to October 15, 2024, but spaces are limited and expected to fill up quickly. There is a lot of speculation about what will appear during the playtest, but most people are hoping that GameCube games will be added to the Expansion Pack.
