Nintendo has officially locked in its next Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase for February 5. The broadcast will run for roughly 30 minutes and focus exclusively on third-party titles coming to Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch.

According to Nintendo, the showcase will feature a slate of updates and announcements from its publishing partners rather than first-party reveals. The presentation will be streamed on YouTube and Nintendo.com across America, Europe, Japan and Aus.

As expected for a Partner Showcase, fans shouldn’t go in anticipating major first-party bombshells, but with Switch 2 now firmly in the spotlight, the event is likely to offer a clearer look at how third-party support is shaping up for Nintendo’s next-generation hardware.
