A new Nintendo Direct could be on the horizon, according to the reliable source Nate the Hate. During a podcast on July 14, Nate mentioned that a Direct is expected this month, although it will not take place until after the release of Donkey Kong Bananza, scheduled for July 17 on Switch 2. This release is significant for Nintendo and could mark the beginning of a series of important announcements.

Additionally, an event for Pokemon Presents has been scheduled for July 22, suggesting that there could be a week full of news related to Nintendo. Nate the Hate, acknowledging the proximity of both events, indicated that the possibility of a Nintendo Direct taking place in the same week as the Pokemon event is not unprecedented, which opens the door to several important announcements.
Among the speculations about what could be revealed in the upcoming Direct, the possibility of a Donkey Kong movie project or the confirmation of Red Dead Redemption II for Switch 2 is mentioned. Additionally, Activision has expressed interest in bringing Call of Duty to Nintendo’s console, which could be a hot topic in future presentations.
It is relevant to note that Nintendo has not held a Direct in July 2023 or July 2024, which adds a level of uncertainty regarding the regularity of these events. However, since the company’s next earnings report will be published on August 1, announcements for a Direct could be aligned with the presentation of these financial results.
Nintendo fans and followers should keep an eye on the Nintendo Today app and other official platforms for any last-minute announcements as this potential narrative around the Nintendo Direct unfolds.
