While we already got to see a very brief teaser, we still haven&#8217;t seen any of its gameplay and this is where we expect to see it. A<strong>lso to be expected is that we&#8217;ll see new details about the film, which premieres on April 30, 2027, and it wouldn&#8217;t be surprising if we saw some kind of new announcement about the franchise<\/strong>. Probably some kind of game collection that we can buy for a limited time, like they did for Super Mario&#8217;s anniversary.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, for the general Nintendo Direct we know nothing. There haven&#8217;t been any leaks, beyond Brazil&#8217;s age ratings board leaking a remake of <a href=\"https:\/\/romancing-saga-3.en.softonic.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Romancing SaGa 3<\/a>, Romancing SaGa 3: Destinies United, which wouldn&#8217;t be surprising to see in this Direct. But otherwise, <strong>we only know one important detail: it will be <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-nintendo-direct-for-switch-2\" rel=\"noopener\">focused exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2 games<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In any case, we won&#8217;t have to wait long to find out, <strong>considering that they&#8217;ll be held on September 8 and 9 at 4:00 PM CEST, with runtimes of about 30 and 45 minutes, respectively<\/strong>. So get ready, because Nintendo seems to have more than one surprise up its sleeve.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nintendo doesn&#8217;t usually give advance notice of its Directs, but this time it has made an exception.
