Nintendo of Europe is giving Switch Online subscribers the chance to check out Prison Architect: Nintendo Switch Edition for free next week.
The BAFTA-winning simulation and management game is the latest title to be offered up as a Game Trial (events that let Switch Online subscribers download and play a full game for a limited time). Unlike a typical free demo, you can go ahead and beat the entire game without spending a single penny if you have the time to do so before the trial's up.
This Game Trials offer will be live from 20th - 26th October in Europe, but you can already go ahead and get the software downloaded now; no news on a similar trial has been confirmed for other regions just yet, although North American players will be able to check out The Jackbox Party Pack 6 for free later today.
You can find our full review of Prison Architect right here if you'd like to learn what it's all about before diving in – simply head to the 'Nintendo Switch Online' section of the eShop to find and download the trial.

I already own this plus all it's DLC, and i very much recommend it. Played it both on switch and pc, a cool and fun prison management sim.
This looks like my kind of stuff
what the heck is this game? Please tell me this is some slick satire and not a prison-industrial complex propaganda item? Help me, world.
strange game to pick for this trial. Then again I can't get it cuz its EU.
Wow what a horrible concept for a game. Way to glorify privately owned prisons and the way we profit from incarceration….
What’s next? How to keep your country club segregated? Redline your district to maximize profit?
@GannonBanned exactly. This is ridiculous and harmful.
Of course, only in Europe. Never in the US.
Not really free, more like a rental.
As usual it would be too generous of Nintendo to give this game to NSO members completely free.
Surely they can't afford that.
@HungryHungryHomer As usual it would be too generous of Nintendo to give this game to NSO members completely free.
Surely they can't afford that.
Who do you think they are, Microsoft? They can't afford to be giving away games when they can barely afford to keep the lights on.
@OFFICIALMichi
It's ridiculously fun. Gonna go fry some death row inmates right now.
Oooo😮 that looks-wait. europe only DANGIT😡
The ridiculousness of the SJW comments regarding this game are just laughable. You may as well cry about all the violence in games while you're at it. Apparently people can't discern between make believe and RL. This is a great game! The DLC is great and they added another DLC pack not too long ago. I would highly reccomend giving this a try.
