The incredibly wholesome Pokémon Snap will be added to Nintendo Switch Online next week, it has been confirmed.

Originally released on the N64 in 1999, the relaxing game where you take photographs of Pokémon in the wild will be part of the Nintendo Switch Online plus Expansion Pack collection as of June 24th 2022. The on-rails spinoff still holds up remarkably well to this day, only taking around four to six hours complete – ideal for a lazy afternoon.

It has been a fan-favourite among the Pokémon community too, which in turn helped a sequel get made more than 20 years on inNew Pokémon Snap. With that, it’s well worth giving the N64 version a go, then if you can move onto the newer Switch version that takes about a dozen hours to complete.

Check out the trailer for Pokémon Snap below:

It also now includesSega Genesis gamessuch as Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Streets of Rage and Castlevania: Bloodlines.

The Nintendo Switch Online plus Expansion Pack tier can bepurchasedat $49.99 / £34.99 / AU$59.95 per year. A Family Membership subscription (which can support up to eight Nintendo accounts) can otherwise be bought for $79.99 / £59.99 / AU$109.
