How much does it cost to rent a game?

We will notify you before your rental expires so you can plan accordingly.

  • Step-by-step download guide

You'll use the provided account on your Nintendo Switch 2 to access and download the game from the Nintendo eShop. The process is quick and straightforward.

How long does the download take?

Download times depend on your internet connection speed. With a standard broadband connection, most games take 15-45 minutes to download. Game sizes typically range from 8GB to 15GB. You can start playing as soon as the download completes.

Can I play offline after downloading?

Yes! Once you've downloaded a game, you can play it offline for the duration of your rental period. However, you will need to connect to the internet to verify your rental status when starting the game.
