Good news for those of us keenly awaiting the arrival of the big new sequel to a 3DS banger, because a free playable demo has just dropped for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream on the Nintendo Switch.
Dubbed the “Welcome Version,” this early downloadable taste of the game will let you experience the very beginning of the game, and all of your progress in the demo will also carry across to the full game if you decide to pick it up.
As a reward for reaching the end of the demo, you’ll also get a bonus hamster costume, in a random colour selection. The other colours will also be available in the full game.
If you’re keen to check it out, you can find the download links below:
