Feb 20, 2024 11:37 AM

Gaming enthusiasts are looking forward to a wealth of new information as a Nintendo Direct is scheduled for February 21, 2024, promising around 25 minutes of updates focused on upcoming Nintendo Switch titles from the company's publishing and development partners. This event has sparked interest in potential game announcements, particularly around Xbox games such as Hi-Fi Rush, Pentiment, and Sea of Thieves that might make their debut on the Switch console. The gaming community is also speculating about the inclusion of Hollow Knight: Silksong, with hopes still high despite the game's initial announcement five years earlier. Alongside the Nintendo Direct, Pokemon fans have more to celebrate with a Pokemon Presents broadcast later in the week, set for February 27, 2024, to mark Pokemon Day with exciting news.

What can we expect from the upcoming Nintendo Direct and Pokemon Presents?

We can expect new details on Nintendo Switch games releasing in the first half of 2024 and possibly announcements regarding Xbox games coming to Switch. The Pokemon Presents is likely to reveal fresh content or games in celebration of Pokemon Day.

Hollow Knight: Silksong is a highly anticipated sequel to indie-hit Hollow Knight, developed by Team Cherry. After its initial reveal, the game has been shrouded in mystery, with fans eagerly awaiting more news. Its potential mention in the coming Nintendo Direct has reignited hope among its patient fanbase for an update or release date. On the other side, entries like Hi-Fi Rush and Pentiment represent Xbox's diverse game portfolio potentially expanding to Nintendo's platform, highlighting the growing trend of cross-platform availability. Pokemon Presents aligns with the annual Pokemon Day, which celebrates the franchise's legacy and often includes major announcements for the series.
