Nintendo Direct recap: All the big news from the games showcase (Tom's Guide)

The Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak expansion is coming to the Switch on June 30. For a full breakdown of the Nintendo Direct Mini Partner Showcase as it happened ...

If you're only interested in Mario and Zelda than perhaps this won't be the Direct for you. it’s been available for four years now.” And that was followed up by him sharing a Gif of Nier director Yoko Taro; check out our interview with the elusive game director. So this has got me (Roland Moore-Colyer) thinking about whether we'll hear about more third-party N64 games getting added to the Nintendo Switch Online service. It's coming to the Switch on November 4. I'd like to see a bit of everything. It's a text-free story with local and online co-op play, meaning you and a friend can figure out the story through what's happening on the screen alone. Made by Devolver Digital, Return to Monkey Island looks perfectly crafted for the Switch's mix of traditional and touchscreen controls. A heck of a lot was announced or given release dates/windows, so expect the next 12 months to be packed for Switch fans. And it looks bizarre, as if the bleak open areas of Elden Ring have been combined with the whacky, speedy moves of Sonic. It has a new Castle mode where 15 players need to assault a castle defended by one. And Bowser is joining the team. Here we have it: Persona 5 Royal has a Switch release date, and it's coming October 21.

Harvestella comes out on the Nintendo Switch on November 4 this year. It comes to the Nintendo Switch on December 9 this year. The game is coming out this holiday season. Doraemon is one of the most influential anime IPs of all time, and its lighthearted tone is perfect for a farming simulation. The game will be released on October 20 this year. The game is coming out on August 18. If building a train system is your idea of a good time, then Railgrade might be the game for you. The game is described as a casual roguelike, and you can download it starting today. Despite having the most generic name ever, The Legend of Wright is one of the more interesting RPG concepts that I’ve seen among indies this year. You can grab the game on August 26 this year. Sunbreak is the upcoming expansion for Monster Hunter Rise, and it adds a ton of new monsters every season. (No sign of Network Transmission from GameCube, though.)

We were hoping that we would finally get to see and hear more about the next Zelda, Pokemon or Bayonetta games during the presentation. And while the rumour of ...

The game is set to release in February 2023, and it looks like it could well earn a place on our list of the best cozy games. From Nier: Automata The End of YoRHa to Disney's Dreamlight Valley, Nintendo announced a nice mix of RPG, sandbox, puzzle and action-adventure games that should appeal to a range of players. And while the rumour of a mini Direct event ended up being true, I have to admit I'm a little disappointed with the announcements.
