February 2025 Nintendo Direct: Will It Happen?

by

Summary

  • Gaming news insider Jeff Grubb believes that a Nintendo Direct may still be held in February.
  • If the event comes to pass, it will likely be a Mini Direct or Partner Showcase.
  • The company has already announced an April Direct that will focus on the Nintendo Switch 2.

A trusted gaming source hints that a fresh Nintendo Direct announcement might be imminent. This year has been brimming with significant updates for Nintendo enthusiasts, particularly regarding their upcoming primary console. In January 2025, Nintendo unveiled Nintendo Direct 2, piquing the interest of gamers with a sneak peek at a potential new Mario Kart game slated for release in conjunction with the system later this year.

Details about the upcoming Nintendo console will be revealed during a live stream event called Nintendo Direct, scheduled for this coming April. While Nintendo has set a specific date and time for this main event, there’s also speculation that additional, smaller Nintendo Direct events might happen prior to the April showcase, providing further updates on Nintendo-related topics. However, predictions about an early 2025 Nintendo Direct in February didn’t materialize as expected.

Although the month is not yet fully underway, gaming insider Jeff Grubb hasn’t excluded the possibility of a Nintendo Direct livestream in February 2025. In his recent Game Mess episode, Grubb shared that one of his sources hinted at an upcoming Nintendo Direct, but he believes it will likely be a Mini Direct or Partner Showcase instead of the major Nintendo Switch 2 Direct already set for April.

Jeff Grubb Thinks a February Nintendo Direct Is Coming

It’s important to note that while there is speculation about a Nintendo Direct in February 2025, it might not deliver major Nintendo games as fans hope. Some Reddit users on r/GamingLeaksAndRumours suggest that the event could still reveal some first-party Nintendo titles like a potential Nintendo Switch port of Kirby: Planet Robobot, or possibly remasters of Metroid Prime 2 and 3.

It’s quite likely that Nintendo might refrain from any live streams prior to their major Switch 2 presentation in April, as they wouldn’t want smaller announcements overshadowing the big event. However, there are numerous games scheduled for release on the original Switch this year, along with titles from third-party publishers and developers. These are the games that Grubb’s source hinted would be the center of attention in the upcoming Nintendo Direct. If a new Nintendo Direct livestream is indeed planned for February 2025, it should be announced soon, so keep an eye out for official confirmation from Nintendo.
