Nintendo Confirms Partner Showcase for July 31

After days of intense online speculation and rumors, Nintendo has officially confirmed that a new **Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase** will air tomorrow, **July 31**, at **6 AM PT / 9 AM ET**.

This presentation is set to provide updates on “upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games” from various third-party publishers and developers. This information was shared by Nintendo across its official social media platforms. As of this announcement, no further specific details regarding the Direct`s content have been disclosed.

The previous Nintendo Switch 2 Direct, which took place in April, notably featured several third-party titles that are slated for future release on the Switch 2, including Square Enix`s **Final Fantasy VII: Remake Intergrade** and From Software`s **The Duskbloods**.

How to Tune In to the July Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase

The upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Direct will be streamed live on Nintendo`s official YouTube and Twitch channels. For viewers who are unable to watch the initial broadcast, an on-demand version of the stream will be made available shortly after its premiere. Additionally, individual trailers showcased during the event will also be accessible.

Broadcast Schedule and Estimated Length

The July Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase is scheduled to begin on **July 31** at **6 AM PT / 9 AM ET**. According to Nintendo`s announcement on social media, the event is expected to run for approximately **25 minutes**.

  • 6 AM PT (Pacific Time)
  • 9 AM ET (Eastern Time)
  • 2 PM BST (British Summer Time)
  • 11 PM AET (Australian Eastern Standard Time)

Anticipated Content

It`s important to note that as this is explicitly a “Partner Showcase,” focusing on games from Nintendo`s publishing collaborators, viewers should temper expectations for reveals concerning first-party Nintendo titles. Games like **Metroid Prime 4: Beyond** or **Kirby Air Riders**, for instance, are likely being reserved for future dedicated Nintendo events.

Nevertheless, a wealth of exciting upcoming games from these publishing partners could potentially be featured. This might include a renewed look at the previously mentioned **Final Fantasy VII: Remake Intergrade** and **The Duskbloods** (which is confirmed as a Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive). Other titles that could make an appearance range from **Hades 2** and **Professor Layton and The New World of Steam** to **Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds**.

Furthermore, several titles announced for the Switch 2 since the April Nintendo Direct—such as **Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles** and **Mortal Kombat: Legacy Collection**—may also make their official debut during this Partner Direct presentation.
