Captain Toad Treasure Tracker for FREE

Update 1/13: Captain Toad Treasure Tracker freebie for Switch Online members is now live, according to Nintendo.

Captain Toad Treasure Tracker features Mario’s Mushroom Kingdom cohort in a unique diorama-style puzzle experience with stages based on Super Mario Odyssey and two-player action by sharing the same Joy-Con. The full game will be FREE to play from tomorrow, January 13, 2022, at 10 a.m. PT until January 20 at 12:59 PT for all Nintendo Switch Online members

The timing works out well here as well. That will give folks not familiar with the experience enough time to try it and scoop up the full game to keep forever at a discount as part of the New Year sale. You can score digital copies of the game on Amazon at $27.99 right now, down from the regular $40 — the same price it is being offered for on the eShop where you’ll also find price drops on the Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker – Special Episode DLC at $4.19 (regularly $6, scroll to the bottom of this page to see it).

Head over to this morning’s roundup for a host of other top-tier Nintendo Switch game deals including Dragon Quest Builders 2, Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Hades, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, Super Mario Bros U: Deluxe, Kirby Fighters 2, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, and much more
