The Next Nintendo Direct Is Taking Place Right Now Today

[TheChronicle.cc] –Mark your calendars: the next Nintendo Direct is happening today, June 18 at 10 AM ET. Following up on a promise made during its latest earnings call, Nintendo is set to deliver a 40-minute stream packed with updates and news about games coming to the Switch later this year.

This timing is perfect, coming just after the Summer Game Fest, allowing Nintendo to have the spotlight all to itself. While the company has confirmed that it will unveil the Switch’s successor by next April, don’t expect any details about the new console—whether it's called the Switch 2, Super Switch, or something else—during this Direct.

The focus will remain squarely on the current lineup, and there’s plenty of excitement surrounding potential game reveals. Fans are eagerly hoping for updates on highly anticipated titles like *Hollow Knight: Silksong*, which was conspicuously absent from the Summer Game Fest. There's also a yearning for a new Donkey Kong platformer—it's been far too long since the last adventure in that beloved series.

Stay tuned for what promises to be an exciting showcase, as Nintendo continues to support the Switch with compelling new content.
