I do wonder on second thoughts if this is a full fledged game, or more of a demo they're using to playtest this kind of thing for future titles, like if it's just a trial run for a first party MMO on Switch 2 or something.

Hopefully we find out more soon.

I have similar thoughts. First of all I doubt this is coming to Switch alone as the Switch is almost done, maybe once Switch 2 is out it'll be released on both systems so it is available to everyone on NSO.

But I'm wondering whether this will be an actual game you buy, or just a 'feature' of NSO expansion pack to get more people buying that and act as a universal community hub game for NSO users (which I think would be really cool and would signal that Nintendo is taking their online setup more seriously next gen).

Yeah it does seem weird to release a long term game right as Switch is winding down. I'm leaning towards this being a trial run for something they're going to do on the successor.

I think you could be right in terms of it being an NSO hub; game-ifying their online service itself would be a very Nintendo move.
