With rumors of a next-generation Switch swirling, a Nintendo Direct has been announced for Thursday at 7am PT. It will focus on Switch games releasing this winter, Nintendo said.
Among the rumored announcements are remasters for Nintendo classics like The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, a Fire Emblem remake, and a new Donkey Kong game. The next-gen Switch could also get an early tease, though Nintendo may be wary of disrupting its holiday release schedule.
Nintendo said the Direct will last around 40 minutes. “Tune in on Sep 14 at 7am PT for a #NintendoDirect livestream featuring roughly 40 minutes of information focused on #NintendoSwitch games releasing this winter,” Nintendo said in a post on X.

The last major Nintendo Direct was in June, where Nintendo revealed Super Mario Wonder, a Super Mario RPG remake, and a host of other big announcements. Expect deep dives into both games as well as a release date for the second set for Pokémon DLC. Just don’t count on Tears of the Kingdom DLC, which according to producer Eiji Aonuma will not be happening.
Keep an eye on IGN for plenty more Nintendo Direct coverage on Thursday, including a deep dive special by Nintendo Voice Chat, follow-up analysis, and lots more.
