A potential Nintendo Direct is rumored to be happening later this week, ahead of the highly-anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 reveal event on April 2.
The speculation began after a leaker hinted at another presentation in the coming days. This was backed up by ninspider, who previously drew concept art for the Switch 2 console and tablet, suggesting that the Direct might be an opportunity to showcase some of its upcoming titles before the main event.
NateTheHate2, the person behind the initial leak of the Switch 2 announcement, also confirmed on social media that a presentation is planned for this week, with the possibility of taking place around Thursday. However, Nintendo has yet to officially announce any details about the Direct’s format or content.
While it’s unclear what to expect from the event, some speculate that it might be a more general presentation rather than the typical Nintendo Direct experience. The timing does seem unusual, given that the Switch 2 reveal is just around the corner. Nevertheless, Nintendo has shown a history of unexpected surprises, so fans are eagerly awaiting any news or confirmation about this potential Direct.
