The summer season ain’t over but

We’ve seen a number of main publishers showcase their huge streams within the month of June, and now, it’s Nintendo’s flip. A brand new Nintendo Direct is ready to air on June 21, 2023.

Introduced this morning on social media, Nintendo will host the brand new Direct at 7 a.m. PT / 10 a.m. ET on its video channels. You possibly can watch alongside by the embed under:

As for content material, Nintendo says there can be “roughly 40 minutes” of knowledge on Nintendo Swap titles, largely launching this 12 months. A selected focus is Pikmin 4, one in all Nintendo’s already introduced titles set to launch on July 21, only a month after the Direct. No different video games had been specified within the tweet.

The 12 months forward for Nintendo

There may be area forward for Nintendo to fill with some new recreation bulletins. Exterior Pikmin 4 and the roll-out of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet‘s DLC, there isn’t an excessive amount of on Nintendo’s docket at this time limit.

Hopefuls are seemingly crossing their fingers for both Mario or Samus to make an look with a brand-new recreation. Metroid Prime 4 has been sitting on the sidelines for some time, and hypothesis at all times appear to swirl round Directs about its subsequent look.

There’s no scarcity of third-party or indie hopefuls both. Sq. Enix typically has information to share at these occasions, video games like Steel Slug Techniques have been quiet for some time, and naturally, there’s at all times Silksong.

With Nintendo wanting on the 12 months forward, I’m personally hoping for some agency dates set and titles locked for the approaching fall. PlayStation, Xbox, Capcom, Ubisoft, and lots of others have already introduced held their summer season streams. That is, judging by the relative time frame, a Direct that may’ve lined up with E3. So my very own hope is for at the very least one or two E3-caliber reveals.

We’ll discover out tomorrow through the June 2023 Nintendo Direct at 7 a.m. PT / 10 a.m. ET.
