You can watch the event as it happens below. We’ll be sharing any notable Nintendo-related updates throughout the duration of the stream.

Mortal Kombat 11

CNBC is reporting that AT&T is looking into a possible sale of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, the gaming division of WarnerMedia. If it goes through, the deal could be valued at roughly $4 billion.

CNBC does note that a sale going through isn’t a sure thing, and nothing is “imminent”. However, a number of companies have expressed interest in picking up Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, including Take-Two Interactive Software, Electronic Arts, and Activision Blizzard. AT&T may pursue a deal in which it can continue to receive revenue from its IP.

More Paper Mario: The Origami King

Nintendo UK has opened a proper website for More Paper Mario: The Origami King, revealing more details and footage for the game. We have content pertaining to the game’s characters, gameplay including weapon equipment, accessories, and more.

Here’s the full rundown:

Gods & Monsters

After an accidental leak yesterday, some Google Stadia users were able to try out an early build from Ubisoft’s Gods & Monsters. As it turns out, this was a version shown to the press at E3 2019, so it is significantly dated.

Ubisoft has since commented on the leak. Executive producer Marc-Alexis Cote told Kotaku that a lot has changed, including the name of the game. Additional news will follow at the end of summer.

Cote’s full statement reads:

Ninjala

GungHo Online Entertainment has shared a pair of trailers for Ninjala. Videos showcasing the game’s story mode and first season can be found below.

Ninjala is due out for Switch on June 24.

Nintendo Switch

In the United States last month, Switch again performed well. The latest NPD report reveals that the console kept its streak going as the best-selling hardware platform in both unit and dollar sales.

There’s another impressive stat for Nintendo as well. Switch unit sales were the highest for an individual platform in a May month since the DS in May 2009.

We should also note that Switch’s year-to-date dollar sales remain the highest of any hardware platform in US history. Wii set the previous high in the year-to-date period ending May 2008.
