Art of Balance is Europe’s next Switch Online Game Trial

Nintendo is gearing up for its next Switch Online Game Trial, which will be Art of Balance from Shin’en. Subscribers in Europe will be able to play through the title entirely for free starting on December 14. The offer lasts until December 20.

Like all Switch Online Game Trials, progress made in Art of Balance can be transferred to the full version. It’s likely that a sale will be happening soon as well.

We should note that the Art of Balance Switch Online Game Trial has only been confirmed for Europe thus far. It’s unclear if it will be offered in North America or if Nintendo is planning a different game. The World Ends with You: Final Remix was the most recent Switch Online Game Trial held stateside, though that was around a month ago – so we’re waiting to hear what’s next.

As for Art of Balance, it originally released for Switch in 2018. Read more about the title below.

Puzzle games must be addictive. That’s why we designed 200 levels to not only challenge your skills but also your imagination. With its tight controls, Art of Balance is easy to pick up and hard to put away.

The goal sounds simple at first: Build a balanced stack from all given shapes, but there are plenty of challenges. Some shapes break under load, while others can even reverse gravity and literally turn the stack upside down. With practice, some experimentation and a little bit of luck however you’ll quickly master even the most difficult challenges.

Packed with 5 unique game modes, online play and local split-screen, Art of Balance is the ultimate test for aspiring puzzle masters. Three additional players can join in at any time and help you solve the puzzles.

With a relaxing lounge soundtrack and 8 beautiful environments, Art of Balance is the ideal fit for casual gaming sessions alone or with friends. Play at home or on the go and challenge other players on their Nintendo Switch.

Key Features

– Play 200 levels spread across 8 worlds, each with its own unique lounge style.
– Build alone or together with up to 3 friends.
– Challenge your friends to split-screen matches at home or on the go.
– Go online and play against other players from all over the world.
