Nintendo has sent out a press release recapping some of the information showcased in today’s Nintendo Direct. We have the full announcement below.

Nintendo has just provided a notable update on its mobile game Draglia Lost. The game will launch in the United States, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau on September 27.

Additionally, a Nintendo Direct will be held tomorrow. Times are as follows:

Gamescom 2018 is upon us, and that means a slew of new game announcements. It seems like Nintendo intends to get the ball rolling early this year as there might be a new indie-focused Nintendo Direct about to air.

Earlier today, we reported that the launch of Morphie’s Law on Nintendo Switch might be imminent. A couple of hours later, the game’s official Twitter account sent out the following tweet:

What’s really interesting is that they weren’t the only indie developers/publishers teasing an announcement for 14:00 CEST today. There’s also FDG Entertainment, who released Blossom Tales and Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom:

The makers of puzzle game Baba Is You, which currently isn’t announced for Switch, also teased something for 14:00 CEST:

Of course, the perfect place to bundle so many indie game announcements would be a Nintendo Direct. The folks over at Nintendo Life claim that, according to “close sources of Nintendo Life”, a Nintendo Direct is indeed happening at that time.

As always, take rumors like these with a grain of salt as obviously nothing is set in stone yet, despite quite a few hints. Also, it’s probably best to temper your expectations and don’t expect any major first-party Nintendo news to come out of this. Either way, we should know for sure very soon.

Nintendo has sent out a press release recapping all of the details from today’s Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct. Find the full announcement below.

A legendary vampire hunter and a fan-favorite villain are joining the sprawling cast of the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate game. In a Nintendo Direct video presentation entirely focused on the Nintendo Switch exclusive, it was revealed that Simon Belmont from the Castlevania series and King K. Rool, the main antagonist from the original Donkey Kong Country games, are both joining the game as playable fighters. In addition, the Nintendo Direct also shared additional information on Echo fighters, new stages, new modes and one of the most impressive collections of music ever in a single game, with more than 900 music tracks and 28 hours of music. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate launches exclusively for Nintendo Switch on Dec. 7.
 
“Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of the biggest games Nintendo has ever released,” said Doug Bowser, Nintendo of America’s Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Between all the iconic fighters, stages and music, it’s the largest video game crossover ever produced – and nothing short of a Nintendo fan’s dream come true.”

E3 will be opening up its doors very soon, but before the expo officially begins, Nintendo is closing out this week’s round of presentations with a Nintendo Direct. The show starts at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 5 PM in the UK / 6 PM in Europe. You can watch the Nintendo Direct live below.

Super Smash Bros. for Switch is obviously a sure thing here. Nintendo hasn’t confirmed any other titles, but possibilities include Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu / Eeevee, Fire Emblem, Yoshi, Metroid Prime 4, and others.

We’ll also have a live blog going below, which I’ll be passing over to Josh if all goes well. New announcements will be added to the site as they come in, with full coverage to follow the rest of the day and through Thursday.

Today’s Nintendo Direct will be kicking off in an hour from now. The presentation is expected to begin at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET / 10 PM in the UK / 11 PM in Europe.

The new Nintendo Direct will cover Mario Tennis Aces as well as other games for both Switch and 3DS. The presentation should last about 30 minutes.

We have all three live streams (North America, Europe, Japan) below. If all goes well, Dennis will also be handling our live blog below. Expect new posts on the site as the big announcements are made. Enjoy the Nintendo Direct!

When Nintendo holds its big presentations, Nintendo NY often lets the fans stop by and watch them live. That will once again be the case with today’s Nintendo Direct.

If you happen to be near the store in the New York City area, head up to the second floor at 5 PM. You’ll then be able to view the Nintendo Direct with other fans as the broadcast happens.
