If you’re a true Pokémon fan, you obviously own a Nintendo Switch. If you are a member of Online, you can play a free game from the series.
An awful lot of Pokémon games have already appeared on the Nintendo Switch. What started with Red and Blue has since evolved into Legends Arceus and Violet and Scarlet.
But among those names are many other titles floating around in the Pokémon universe. One of them is now coming to Nintendo Switch Online and is free to play.
The Pokémon game that will soon be free to play on Nintendo Switch
What PlayStation Plus is to PlayStation and Game Pass is to Xbox, Nintendo Switch Online is to the hybrid console. And on that console, you play many well-known franchises. After Super Mario and Zelda, Pokémon is perhaps the best known.
One of the games from that franchise is Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team. It is now coming to the subscription if you have the expansion pack.

The game will be playable starting August 9, which is special. It is the first Pokémon game from the Game Boy Advance to come to the Nintendo Switch. Previously, Pokémon Snap and Pokémon Trading Card Game were available. But these came from the Nintendo 64 and regular Game Boy, respectively.
We can quite understand if you have forgotten Pokémon Mystery Dungeon, since the game dates back to 2006. In the game, you go on an adventure and explore different dungeons that are full of traps. Meanwhile, you need to level up your teammates and do well to keep up with your inventory. In addition to the main missions, you can also complete several side quests.
Here’s how to play the Pokémon game for free
So if you want to play the game for free, you need Nintendo Switch Online and the expansion pack. This will cost you 39.99 euros for 12 months.
Besides being able to play with each other and have access to various NES games, the expansion pack also gives you access to games that previously appeared on the Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Advance.
