Nintendo is a big fan of limited-time offers (ahem, March 31st, ahem), but this seven-day free trial for Nintendo Switch Online has been timed to coincide perfectly with the currently-available timed demo for Monster Hunter Rise.
Although the newest Monster Hunter game can be played locally, we all know that hunting monsters is much better (and way less stressful) when we rope our friends in, too.
The store page makes it clear that this seven-day trial is aimed primarily at people who want to play Monster Hunter online, with a ton of information about what the demo entails, but the news page for the offer also promotes the Kirby Fighters 2 addition to Tetris 99 (which is available until January 11th) as well as the upcoming Splatoon 2 Splatfest theme: Super Mushroom vs Super Star.
Unfortunately, the free trial is not available to anyone who already has an active Individual Membership or a Family Membership. The trial also automatically converts to a one-month rolling membership after the seven days are up. The code for the free trial is only valid until the 8th February, so anyone who's not already signed up for membership should get in on it while they can.
Have you given the Monster Hunter Rise demo a go yet? Let us know your thoughts so far in the comments!

Is it possible to invert the Y axis? I can't find this option and it makes the demo unplayable for me.
@Bydlak I decided to help out and find it for you.
When you get in the demo, go to Options then select Camera. There is an option there that says "Camera Controls" and it should be set to Type 1, if you switch it over, read the description at the bottom, you can invert the X axis, the Y axis or both.
It's a bit of an obscure thing, but what can you do, it's Monster Hunter.
Can you get the free trial without giving payment details? I want a go at Tetris 99
Man, I WONDER what will happen on March 31st.
Still can't wait for the full game. Come on March, hurry up
Tried MH several times, but it still didn't pull me in yet.
nice but free trials force you to put in the credit card information, so no thank you.
@Varkster
Wow, so kind of you! Thank you so much.
I saw that it Type 1 thing but did not realize it worked the way you discovered. Now I may enjoy the demo. Cheers!
