Nintendo fans have a lot to look forward to, including the company's launch. new museuma Donkey Kong theme park expansion coming to the US, and of course, the Switch sequel. But it all comes down to the games, and we’ll soon have a clearer idea of what’s coming to Switch thanks to a double Nintendo Direct the company has scheduled for August 27. The stream will begin at 10 a.m. ET. on YouTube with an Indie World presentation that will lead into a Nintendo Direct Partner presentation.

Indie World showcases often feature a few games that suddenly hit the eShop that same day, so there's a good chance you'll have some new options to try out tomorrow.

Yes, yes, we say this every time there's a Nintendo Direct or Indie World, but if there was ever a perfect time for a Hollow Knight: Silk's Song Release date reveal and a deep dive into the long-awaited sequel, that's what it feels like.
In any case, the Engadget team will be keeping a close eye on the Cherry team's news during the stream. We'll also keep you up to date with all the notable announcements from the double presentation. You can watch the double presentation here:
