Nintendo Switch Online Prices Rise July 1, Current Rate Extensions Available
The price hike raises the cost of Nintendo's online service for all subscribers, but the extension option gives existing users a one-time chance to lock in the old rates for up to three years.
Reporting from 1 sources: GAME Watch (Impress).
Nintendo Switch Online will see price increases across all plans starting July 1, 2026. Subscribers can still extend their service at current prices by purchasing additional usage tickets before the change takes effect. The new prices range from 400 yen for a one-month individual plan to 9,900 yen for a 12-month family plan with the Expansion Pack.
Nintendo Switch Online subscribers face higher fees starting July 1, with the individual 12-month plan rising to 3,000 yen and the family plan to 5,800 yen. The Expansion Pack tier jumps to 5,900 yen for individuals and 9,900 yen for families. Current subscribers can preempt the increase by buying additional usage tickets for their existing plan, extending their expiration date by up to 1,095 days at the old price. The next automatic renewal payment will be charged at the revised rate if it falls on or after July 1. Nintendo confirmed the changes in a notice published Monday.
