Nintendo Direct will return April 12 with Splatoon 2 and Arms

Now that your time in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is winding down, Nintendo wants to pitch you on some future Switch games.

The Japanese game company’s next Nintendo Direct will stream at 3 p.m. Pacific on April 12. Nintendo uses these presentations to show off upcoming games or make new product announcements. This Nintendo Direct will focus on two games for the Switch, Splatoon 2 and Arms. The Switch launched in March with a good start, but it’ll need continued software support to keep its momentum going. This Direct will give Nintendo a chance to sell consumers on the console’s upcoming releases.
