It hasn’t even been a week since State of Play, and another major showcase is reportedly happening soon. Anonymous sources told Nintendo Universe (translation via DeepL) that a new Nintendo Direct is reportedly coming between February 12th and 15th. It will allegedly focus on news for the first half of 2024, though whether it’s a general or a mini Direct is unknown.
Considering the publisher’s tendency to host the first Direct of the year in February, this tracks. With titles like Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, Princess Peach: Showtime! and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD coming this year, it’s even more likely to air next week.
Even more interesting is that Microsoft will host business update event next week to share its vision for the future of Xbox. With rumors surrounding Sea of Thieves and Hi-Fi Rush going to Nintendo Switch (and PS5), they could appear during the Direct. Time will tell, so stay tuned for more details.
