When someone starts the Rhythm Heaven Groove demo, you arrange settings like if the narrator will read-aloud or not and will go through a TV input delay settings rhythm test to ensure accuracy. After that’s done, you’ll be in the main menu and be able to play solo or with friends. Once you select how you’d like to play, you can go through the Hoop Trundling, Brolly Good Show, Disc Dog, Feeding the Beast, and Remix 1 in solo. In multiplayer, you can play the returning Rhythm Tweezers game. 

Rhythm Tweezers is one we’ve seen multiple times before, with its most recent appearance in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. It’s the one in which you pluck hairs from an onion in time with music. 

Rhythm Heaven Groove will come to the Switch on July 2, 2026 and the demo is available now. The title and trial will also be playable on the Switch 2.
