Nintendo Announces New Direct Presentation for Thursday

JUL 31 – Nintendo's Partner Showcase will highlight upcoming third-party titles for Switch and Switch 2 in a 25-minute presentation excluding major first-party updates, Nintendo said.

  • On Thursday, Nintendo announced a Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase for July 31, 2025 at 2pm UK time and 3pm CET, the first since the Switch 2 launched.
  • Some hoped for a Metroid Prime 4 release date, making the Nintendo Direct potentially disappointing, as fans have been requesting a showcase to preview the Switch 2 lineup later this year.
  • Treating first-party titles as exceptions, the showcase will be roughly 25 minutes long and feature Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 games from publishing partners.
  • Alongside partner updates, leaks suggest Ubisoft has heavily hinted at a Switch 2 port of Assassin's Creed Shadows, and Microsoft titles like Halo: The Master Chief Collection are expected.
  • Longer term, the showcase may support the original Nintendo Switch, which has sold over 150 million units, to fill in questions about the Switch 2's first year.
