Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is the next Switch Online Game Trial in North America
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker will soon be entirely free for Switch Online subscribers in North America during a limited period under the Game Trial program, Nintendo has announced.
Those with an active subscription can gain full access starting on January 13 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET. Any progress made can be transferred to the full version. The trial will be held until January 20 at 11:59 PM PT / January 21 at 2:59 AM ET.
Here’s some information about the game:
Captain Toad stars in his own puzzling quest on the Nintendo Switch™ system! Our stubby hero must dodge dangers and track treasures across many trap-filled courses. Survive smoldering volcanoes, hazardous steam engines, haunted houses, and even new courses based on the Super Mario Odyssey™ game! Luckily, a second player can join in by tossing turnips at enemies.
Play anytime, anywhere, and anyway you want—even in two-player mode using a pair of Joy-Con™ controllers on one Nintendo Switch system—in TV mode or Tabletop mode. You could also play alone in handheld mode! No matter what, explore each puzzling course for treasure, like hidden Super Gems and Power Stars. As you reclaim the treasure stolen by the monstrous, greedy bird, Wingo, you’ll eventually be able to play as Toadette! These tiny heroes must waddle, hide, pluck, chuck, and power-up through enemy-infested locales like towers, wild-west shanties, and Goomba waterparks—all bursting with secrets. Aim your head-mounted flashlight at adventure!
It’s also worth noting that other than the Nintendo Switch Online Game Trial, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is having a sale on the Switch eShop. It can be purchased for 30 percent off until January 16 at 11:59 PM PT / January 17 at 2:59 AM ET.
