It has taken no less than five months to have a new Nintendo Direct again finally. And it is that the big N seems to have wanted to wait until the beginning of this year to offer us a fresh look at the news that will await us throughout 2022, with an event that will be held today at night.

As is customary, the company has advanced that the presentation will repeat with its usual format of only 40 minutes. Many videos on upcoming releases and updates to currently available titles will be brought together. Although also following his custom, no details about the explicit content have been revealed.

Tune in 2/9 at 2 p.m. PT for a #NintendoDirect livestream featuring roughly 40 minutes of information mainly focused on #NintendoSwitch games launching in the first half of 2022.

However, this does not imply that we do not have a pretty clear idea of expectations. Most likely, the broadcast will focus mainly on the exclusives, such as Triangle Strategy, dated for March 4; Kirby and the Forgotten Land, scheduled for release on March 25, as well as other titles planned for the coming months such as “Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, dated April 5; Life is Strange: Remastered Collection, with a date still to be confirmed for this spring”.

And it is that this Nintendo Direct could be a perfect opportunity to reveal new details about some of the most anticipated Nintendo Switch games of the year, such as Splatoon 3, Bayonetta 3, or the sequel to Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and other titles that currently only have a generic release window in 2022, such as Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope or the return of the classic Advance Wars 1+2: Re-boot Camp.

On the other hand, new advances of the Super Mario live-action movie are also expected, presenting its first trailer with scenes from the film. However, many eyes are also focused on the rumors (already recurring since the last Nintendo Direct) about a possible preview and date for Hollow Knight: Silk song, the long-awaited sequel to this indie.

Thus, you will be able to follow the event live from this article through the following video that will begin broadcasting live tonight from 11:00 p.m. Although as always, tomorrow you can find the main news in our summary.
