In today's Nintendo Direct, it was announced that there is a full game trial version of ARMS available for Nintendo Switch Online users that will work from today, through April 6th

*Link above is for game info. Must go to the eShop on the Switch console to download the Trial version of ARMS, not the Demo above.
Thanks to Burndrive for the clarification.

FYI, you have to download the trial from the eShop on the switch. You can't do it from the web.

I'm a bit confused. So is it a demo or is it the full game?

It's a time limited trial version that is the full game unlock and playable until April 6th.

Some demos allow only certain levels, stages, maps, modes, characters, etc to be played. I think this demo is the full game (just as if you had purchased the game), but you can only play it until April 6th if you don't buy it.

My son has been wanting this game, but there hasn't been any decent deals on this. The trial will get us through spring break!

How do you access the full content? When I go to the full game menu it says the game must be purchased.

EDIT: Figured it out. There is a separate download from the eshop menu for the full game.

Awesome game. Easy to learn, difficult to master. Online party mode is a lot of fun.
