Key Takeaways

  • February 2025 will likely see a Nintendo Direct event and a Pokemon Presents.
  • The Nintendo Direct may focus on third-party games as Nintendo gears up to reveal the Switch 2.
  • Potential highlights at the Pokemon Presents include Pokemon Legends: Z-A gameplay.

As a lifelong Nintendo fan who has grown up with the magical world of Mario and Pikachu, I can confidently say that February 2025 is shaping up to be a dream come true! The anticipation is palpable, like waiting for the first snowfall of winter.

Enthusiasts of Nintendo can look forward to February 2025 with anticipation, as it’s speculated that 2024 might mark the end of the Switch as Nintendo’s main console. The Switch has had an impressive run spanning over seven years, during which Nintendo consistently released fresh games, updates of classic titles, and other exciting content.

Over the past seven years, Nintendo enthusiasts have been growing curious about what lies ahead. As of now, Nintendo has yet to disclose the details of their upcoming Switch 2 console, but it’s expected that they will unveil it in the coming months. However, regardless of when Nintendo chooses to debut its next-generation console, one month in 2025 is generating much anticipation among fans.

It seems more and more probable that February 2025 will be an extraordinary month for Nintendo enthusiasts. Word on the street is that Nintendo may hold one of its Nintendo Direct presentations during this month, and beyond that, it’s nearly certain that a Pokemon Presents event will occur towards the end of February.

Nintendo Direct Rumored for February

It’s been reported by a trustworthy source that Nintendo is planning a Direct event for February, although they don’t necessarily need to announce it because such events are usually held in February by Nintendo. These Direct events offer a sneak peek at games coming out in the spring and later periods. The upcoming February Direct, however, is particularly intriguing as Nintendo has hinted at unveiling the Switch 2 console sometime between now and April 2025.

While it’s tempting for fans to anticipate the February 2025 Nintendo Direct revealing Switch 2 games, it’s essential to note that the insider who hinted at the Direct, PH Brazil, suggests it will primarily feature Switch games instead. Moreover, there’s a strong possibility that this event will be a Partner Showcase, which means it will highlight third-party games being developed for the Switch. This aligns with past rumors suggesting that in 2025, Nintendo might rely on third-party publishers to expand the Switch’s game library, as they seem to be shifting their focus towards the potential Switch 2 console.

If Nintendo unveils the Switch 2 by February 2025, it’s quite likely that we’ll see some evidence or impact of the new console around the same time. It’s also plausible that the actual event revealing the Switch 2 could occur in February 2025, regardless of any speculation about a Nintendo Direct broadcast.

Regardless of what exactly is shown at the probable February 2025 Nintendo Direct, it should be a treat for fans. And assuming that a Nintendo Direct takes place in February as is tradition, then the month is already guaranteed to be a big one for Nintendo fans. However, there’s even more reason for Switch owners to keep an eye on next February.

Pokemon Presents Will Likely Come Back

Almost every year on February 27, which is known as Pokemon Day, The Pokemon Company organizes a special event called Pokemon Presents. During this event, they share updates about their ongoing live service Pokemon games and disclose new details regarding upcoming DLC and fresh installments in the popular series. There’s speculation that the recent Game Freak leak might affect the plans for future Pokemon announcements and potentially disrupt the 2025 Pokemon Day celebrations, but it appears unlikely at this point.

It’s highly probable that the Pokemon Presents scheduled for February 2025 will shine a spotlight on “Pokemon Legends: Z-A”. This game was unveiled earlier this year as a sequel to “Pokemon Legends: Arceus”, and it is currently in development for the Nintendo Switch, with an expected release in 2025. However, details about “Pokemon Legends: Z-A” have been scarce so far. We only know that the game will be set in Lumiose City and will bring back Mega Evolutions, but beyond these details, fans are left guessing what’s to come.

At the February 2025 Pokémon Presents event, fans can anticipate witnessing gameplay for certain, and possibly even a release date announcement for Pokémon Legends: Z-A. It’s quite likely that the new starters for Pokémon Legends: Z-A might be unveiled during this presentation too.

There’s been plenty of chatter regarding the starters in Pokemon Legends: Z-A. The newest rumor suggests that these starter creatures will resemble their counterparts from the X and Y series (Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie), but with an unexpected twist added to them.

If Pokemon Presents is scheduled for February 27 and the anticipated Nintendo Direct falls within the same month in 2025, it’s clear that this will be an incredibly thrilling time for Nintendo enthusiasts. At present, not many Switch games have been confirmed for February 2025, but with these exciting events on the horizon, fans certainly have much to look forward to.
