Nintendo has announced that it will host a Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase tomorrow, on Wednesday, February 5. It will air at 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET on YouTube and the official Nintendo website.
The company first revealed the news on its Nintendo Today app before announcing it on official social media channels. Nintendo says the Direct will feature “roughly 30 minutes of upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games,” and considering it’s a third-party showcase, it’s unlikely we’ll see any big first-party reveals or updates.
There are a lot of third-party games coming to Switch 2 this year like Pokémon Pokopia (March 5), Pragmata (April 24), Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection (March 13), Resident Evil Requiem, Village Gold Edition, and Biohazard Gold Edition (February 27), WWE 2K26 (March 6), Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties (February 12), and Mega Man Star Force Legacy Collection (March 27), to name a few. There’s a good chance we’ll see updates to some of these games alongside brand-new third-party reveals.
Fortunately, we don’t even have to wait 24 hours to learn more as the Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase will air on Wednesday, February 5, at 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET.
