Nintendo has confirmed a general Nintendo Direct scheduled to air on June 9, 2026.
The company announced the presentation will broadcast at 7:00 AM PT / 10:00 AM ET, and at 3:00 PM in the UK / 4:00 PM in mainland Europe.
Nintendo labeled this show as a general Nintendo Direct — the company’s first broad-format Direct since last September.
Nintendo’s announcement notes that the new Direct follows several targeted showcases earlier this year.
In February, Nintendo aired a Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase, and the company has since delivered multiple game-specific presentations as well as a pair of presentations tied to The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.
Those partner- and title-focused streams have supplemented Nintendo’s larger Direct schedule in 2026.
Rewritten statement: Nintendo confirmed that the June 9 broadcast is intended as the first general Direct of the year, and that it takes place after a series of partner and game-specific presentations earlier in 2026.
The company provided the exact global broadcast times in its announcement.
What to expect from coverage: Nintendo Directs traditionally include game updates, release dates, and eShop announcements for Nintendo Switch and related platforms.
Nintendo has not published a complete slate of second-half 2026 releases ahead of the Direct, so viewers will look to the presentation for official release dates and platform details.
As with prior Nintendo events, publishers and partners often use the Direct to reveal release windows and to confirm eShop launch plans.
How to watch and follow live reporting: The presentation will stream from Nintendo’s official channels at the posted times.
News outlets and industry analysts typically provide play-by-play reporting during the stream and publish consolidated coverage immediately afterward.
We will provide live coverage while the Direct airs and post-event analysis and a collection of announcements once the broadcast concludes.
For viewers and industry watchers, the June 9 Nintendo Direct is the next major scheduled Nintendo broadcast in 2026.
