Nintendo Direct February 2023 live stream blog

Nintendo is set to host its first Nintendo Direct of the year with a February 2023 presentation. The company previously confirmed that the event will be about 40 minutes long and will “mostly” be about Switch games launching in the first half of the year.

As is tradition, we’ll have a live blog that’ll be updated throughout the event. On top of that, we’ve rounded up the different versions of the broadcast for major regions – North America, Europe, and Japan. We’ll have tons of coverage after the event on the main site as well.

You can watch the February 2023 Nintendo Direct live stream below. It’ll kick off at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET / 10 PM in the UK / 11 PM in Europe.

While the return of E3 is still a few months away, the long-running gaming convention made the news this week after a report alleged that Nintendo, as well as Microsoft and Sony, are all reportedly skipping the event. In this week’s episode of Nintendo Everything Refresh, join your hosts Nick, Nicolas and Dennis as they discuss E3’s future and the unknown variables of this year’s show. They’ll also discuss the recently announced Disgaea 7 and Rhapsody games coming from NIS, the return of Switch Online Game Vouchers in North America, the impending death of Knockout City, and more!
