Nintendo releases four new free games including a Zelda and Metroid title as well as a new ‘Mature’ app

NINTENDO periodically adds new classic games to its apps that people can play for free.

Unlike other subscription services, games are rarely removed from Nintendo Switch Online but the library often expands.

Four games have just been added to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, which is the more expensive tier of Nintendo Switch Online.

Two games are joining the Game Boy Advance library, from The Legend of Zelda and Metroid series.

The first game is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past – Four Swords, a co-operative adventure from the Zelda series.

Up to four people can play together to solve environmental puzzles, complete dungeons and defeat bosses.

The next game is Metroid: Zero Mission, a remake of the original Metroid game that was released for the NES.

Metroid didn’t become popular as a series until the success of Super Metroid, so fewer people had the chance to check out the original game.

The final two games are part of the Nintendo 64 library, and are being added to a new Mature app.

Perfect Dark is the first game on the list, and is a first-person shooter that rivaled GoldenEye 007 when it was released.

You play as Joanna Dark, an agent attempting to take down an alien conspiracy.

The final game is Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is the final game added to Nintendo Switch Online, and is another first-person shooter.

Turok is well-known for its fast-paced gameplay where you take down dinosaurs instead of humans.

Here’s the full list of games that were added to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack in June:

• Game Boy Advance
  • The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past – Four Swords
  • Metroid: Zero Mission
• Nintendo 64 – Mature
  • Perfect Dark
  • Turok: Dinosaur Hunter
