Today’s Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase will be starting soon. It begins at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET / 3 PM in the UK / 4 PM in Europe. Like the previous couple of presentations, this one will again focus entirely on upcoming Switch titles from third-party publishers.

Arc System Works and WayForward last teamed up for River City Girls. The two sides are now coming together for another project, this time based on Rooster Teeth’s RWBY animated series.
