Nintendo has announced the return of its Nintendo Switch Online Playtest Program, scheduled to run from July 28 to August 10, 2025. This program targets subscribers of the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack service and will test the same service as a previous playtest conducted in October 2024. The upcoming playtest will significantly increase capacity, allowing up to 40,000 participants, which is four times the number from the prior test. Applications open on July 21 at 8 AM PT and will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. The program involves testing an unnamed MMO-style game, continuing Nintendo's approach of maintaining secrecy around the project details.
