The announcement is significant as the current Switch lineup for the rest of the year appears sparse. Notable upcoming releases include Luigi's Mansion 2 HD on June 27 and Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition on July 18.
Earlier in 2024, Nintendo's offerings were primarily remakes, such as Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and the Another Code collection, along with a few new titles like Princess Peach: Showtime! and Endless Ocean Luminous.
This Direct presentation will conclude a busy period of gaming livestreams that began with Sony's recent State of Play, followed by Summer Game Fest Live and its associated events, and then the Xbox Games Showcase.
