The E3 2019 press conferences and presentations are closing out with a final broadcast from Nintendo. Today’s Nintendo Direct goes live at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET / 5 PM in the UK / 6 PM in Europe.

Nintendo has been quiet on what will be shown here aside from a focus on 2019 titles. That means you’ll likely be hearing more about games such as Zelda: Link’s Awakening, Pokemon Sword/Shield, and Astral Chain. A new announcement or two is probably in the cards as well.

We have a live stream for today’s Nintendo Direct below (which also includes activities for the first day Treehouse: Live), along with a live blog. Posts will also be made separately during and after the show.

Square Enix ends today’s E3 festivities with a conference of its own. The broadcast will be going live at 6 PM PT / 9 PM ET / 2 AM in the UK / 3 AM in Europe.

Last year’s conference was admittedly light on Switch news aside from a brief Octopath Traveler trailer, but we’ll have to see what happens this time around. At the very least, Square Enix may mention Dragon Quest Builders 2 ahead of its western launch next month. If there’s anything noteworthy, we’ll make a separate post on the site.
