Summary
Nintendo has made a free Rhythm Heaven Groove demo available on the eShop, giving Switch players an early look nine days before the full game arrives on July 2.
The demo includes 1 multiplayer minigame and 1 single-player stage built from 4 rhythm games plus a remix level, with Rhythm Tweezers as the featured local multiplayer sample.
That sampler marks a notable return for the series: Rhythm Heaven Groove is the first Rhythm Heaven game in 10 years and the first all-new entry in 14 years.
Nintendo is also positioning the release as a milestone for its hardware cycle, with Rhythm Heaven Groove likely to be the last first-party game on the original Switch.
