The last few weeks have seen some big PlayStation and Xbox livestreams, and now it’s time for the Nintendo Direct June 2024 livestream and all the announcements that come with it. A Nintendo Direct or a related livestream has been held every June since 2012, and this year’s edition will be focused on games being released in the latter half of 2024. Like previous livestreams during the Summer Showcase month, we’ll be covering this event live and you can periodically hit your F5 key to refresh this page to see the latest announcements.
The Switch games that we do know of for this year include Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, and Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition. Then there are the unknowns, games without set release dates like Epic Mickey: Rebrushed, Professor Layton and the New World of Steam, and Pokemon Legends: Z-A.
Most of these will be 2025 games, and we’re hoping for a new trailer at the very least. On top of that, there are missing-in-action games like Metroid Prime 4 and Hollow Knight: Silksong. Could we finally get a tease of these highly anticipated titles? Or will we see Nintendo grow its Zelda library with a long-awaited port of Wind Waker? We’ll have to watch the stream to find out and possibly be disappointed.
Finally, you can count on third-party support for the Switch, as the system regularly sees dozens of indie games released on it every week. The Star Named EOS, Thank Goodness You’re Here, and Wild Bastards are just some of the many games that Switch owners can look forward to.
