Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch Lite and Nintendo Switch OLED users can currently play one of the best games ever for just $2 thanks to a new Nintendo eShop offer. Ever since Nintendo started cracking down on absurdly low discounts on Nintendo eShop, it’s been a little harder to find great deals on the platform, especially when compared to Steam or the PlayStation Store. However, there are still deals if you have the time to peruse the hundreds of discounts available at any given time on Nintendo eShop. The latest is for Inside from developer Playdead, which costs $2 for a limited time thanks to a 90% discount.
Originally released in 2016, Inside debuted with a Metacritic score of 93, making it one of the top rated games of 2016. And as Wikipedia notes, it’s widely considered one of the best games of all time. The 2.5D puzzle platformer is a sequel to 2010 limbo, which is equally celebrated, but they are unrelated in terms of narrative. In other words, you don’t have to play limbo to play Inside. If anything, the latter is the same game as the former but refined in every single aspect.
“Hunted and alone, a boy finds himself drawn into the middle of a dark project,” reads an official blurb about the game. “Inside is a dark narrative platformer that combines intense action with challenging puzzles. It was critically acclaimed for its moody art style, atmospheric soundtrack and unsettling atmosphere.”
At the time of publication, it’s unclear how long this deal will be available. It’s still live at the time of publication, but that may have changed by the time you’re reading this. The game normally costs $20, takes up a fairly modest 1.5GB of storage on the Switch, and supports the following languages: English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish.
