It’s time for another Nintendo Direct once again. The company announced its upcoming presentation in a Monday post on X, giving just one day’s notice for the Direct. Although this presentation may not be what all Nintendo fans may be waiting for news, but there is still some interesting news to come. If you want to experience the news live, be sure to tune in live.
What will Nintendo announce during its latest Direct?
Nintendo usually keeps its Directs secret, revealing few details before the actual announcement. This time, however, we know that there will be two presentations at the Direct: The first will be an Indie World Showcase, an opportunity for Nintendo to show off upcoming indie titles for the Switch, while the second will be a Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase, so we’ll likely see some games from Nintendo partners in the near future.
Nintendo’s latest Direct event was no coincidence. Rumors suggested the company would be holding one of its virtual conferences sometime this week. Some speculated that the event would finally see the Nintendo Switch 2 unveiled for the first time.
Unfortunately, for those of us desperate for news on the Switch 2, this event is not the one. In a short follow-up post, the company said succinctly: “Please note that the Nintendo Switch successor will not be mentioned during any of these presentations.”

While we still have to wait for the Switch 2 to be revealed, this Direct should be interesting in itself: Nintendo has scheduled 40 minutes for the presentation, so if you’re a Switch fan, chances are there’s at least one game here that you’ll find appealing.

Nintendo will live stream its latest Direct on Tuesday, August 27th at 7 a.m. PT (10 a.m. ET). To watch the presentation live, simply visit the company’s YouTube page beforehand.
