For weeks, people have been speculating about a Nintendo Direct presentation in February. Today, Nintendo confirmed those rumors, announcing a Partner Direct showcase will indeed happen. Like recent presentations, the announcement came with very short notice. According to a post on the Nintendo Today app, the Nintendo Partner Direct will air on February 5th.
For those hoping to hear about a new 3D Mario game, this won’t be the time. Nintendo Partner Directs don’t feature first-party titles. Instead, they showcase games from partner developers who are working with Nintendo. This can cover a wide variety of games, from those published by Nintendo but developed by other studios to ports of third-party games newly headed to the Switch 2. The Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase on February 5th will take place at 9 AM ET. This is the typical timing for Nintendo showcases, so there aren’t any big surprises here.
Where to Watch the February Nintendo Partner Direct & What to Expect
The newly confirmed showcase will air live on the Nintendo YouTube channel, as well as via the Nintendo Today app. After it airs live at 9 AM ET, a replay should be available on YouTube. So, if that’s a bit early in your time zone, you can tune in when it’s convenient.
Nintendo is keeping details about their upcoming showcase under wraps, but it will primarily highlight games from other companies, not Nintendo itself. This means we’ll likely have to wait for news on Nintendo’s own games. Still, fans hoping for an update on Witchbrook, like myself, might be pleasantly surprised.
We can expect to hear about more big games coming to the Switch 2 soon. With the new console handling demanding titles like Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Pragmata well, it’s likely we’ll see more action and RPG games ported over. There’s a chance the rumors about Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth coming this year will be confirmed in tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct. We might also get an update on The Duskbloods, a game first shown with the Switch 2 last year.
