Nintendo has officially released what date their Nintendo Direct will be, after many rumors and speculation of when it would be, now we finally know. It was released a few months ago that at this Nintendo Direct, that the next Direct would not contain information regarding the Nintendo Switch 2, but that we would learn about what games will be released next to hold fans over until the new console.
While we don’t have an exact release date for the next console, it has been said that the console will be announced sometime before April 2025. So, tomorrow’s Direct will solely be for new gaming releases and below are some things that will probably be talked about further as well.
- Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD (releasing on June 27)
- Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition (releasing July 18)
- Metroid Prime 4 (rumored)
- Many are hoping older Zelda games will be ported to the Nintendo Switch and it is rumored
- Metroid Prime 2 and 3 ported to the Nintendo Switch (rumor)
- More information on Pokemon Legends: Z-A
There isn’t much information on exactly what will be announced and happening during the Direct, especially since there are only two games releasing this year while the new Pokemon Legends: Z-A won’t be launching until 2025.
With the year being slow so far, we hope some good games will be discussed tomorrow to keep everyone excited before the brand new console releases later on next year. The Nintendo Direct will be tomorrow, June 18, 2024 at 10 am PT.
