A new Nintendo Direct could be announced in the days before or after the launch of the Switch 2, according to a well-known journalist. The event would take place during the No-E3 season and promises to showcase key news for the new console.

The leak comes at a logical time. New hardware is being released, major games are on the way, and Nintendo usually holds its Directs at this time of year. Everything suggests that an event full of announcements and release dates is coming.

When will the next Nintendo Direct take place?

A journalist reported that Nintendo has planned its next Direct for the days around June 5, the date when the Switch 2 would be released.

This information aligns with previous rumors and Nintendo's usual schedule. For more than 10 years, it has released a Direct during this period, taking advantage of the global interest in industry news.

Which games could appear in the Direct?

Among the titles that could be featured are:

  • Donkey Kong: Bananza, releasing in July
  • Drag X Drive, scheduled for this summer
  • Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, one of the most anticipated

The latter would be released for both the new console and the original Switch. This would reinforce the interest of users who have not yet switched generations.

An event with a "No-E3" flavor

The Nintendo Direct would join the wave of events that already have confirmed dates for June. Among them:

  • Summer Game Fest: June 6 at 11:00 p.m.
  • Xbox Games Showcase: June 8
  • PC Gaming Show: also on June 8

Other presentations are also being added, such as Wholesome Direct, Day of the Devs, and the Future Games Show, all scheduled for the first week of the month.

What about PlayStation? It also joins the competition

Rumors indicate that Sony would have a new State of Play ready for mid-June. It could include the final trailer for Death Stranding 2, gameplay from Ghost of Yotei, or previews of Marvel’s Wolverine.

The stage is set for an intense season, with the three major brands competing for gamers' attention. However, without a doubt, all eyes will be on what Nintendo reveals about its new hardware and the games that will accompany it.
