Our summer live is finally here, almost! And while a Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase may not be what everyone wanted (no Breath of the Wild 2 makes us sad!), There will surely be a good dose of lovely third-party news for Switch owners.
This is the first direct offer since the February bumper offer and the first presentation for partners since 2020. It will not be a direct presentation in the traditional sense, but the full 25-minute presentation will be posted on YouTube for people to see it on their own. time. There is no live broadcast, just a video that we can all watch in our time when it falls at 6:00 PDT / 9:00 EDT / 14:00 BST / 15:00 CET.
Note: We’ll add the link to the top of the page as soon as it drops, so if it’s Direct time and you don’t see it above, try refreshing the page!
So what do we think will be shown? We’ve already had a few ideas and you made your voice heard in our poll yesterday, which you can still vote on if you’d like a cheeky look before watching the video!
Since last night, however, there have been some smaller tips and announcements. Shin-chan: Me and the teacher on summer vacation: The endless seven-day trip will arrive in the West this August, so we’ll be surprised if we don’t see it in today’s Showcase. Ubisoft has also leaked a possible release date for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. And rumors that the acclaimed philosophical action role-playing game from Square Enix and PlatinumGames NieR: Automata will hit Switch have begun to circulate.
The Showcase will be posted at 6:00 PDT / 9:00 EDT / 14:00 BST / 15:00 CET on Nintendo’s official YouTube channel.
