Overview

  • The Indie World Showcase streams live on Nintendo’s YouTube and Twitch channels at 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET on August 7.
  • This marks the first indie-focused event since June’s Switch 2 launch, which sold over six million units in its first seven weeks.
  • Nintendo has revealed no specific games, fueling speculation around Hades 2 and Hollow Knight: Silksong, though insider SwitchForce says Silksong won’t appear.
  • Last week's Partner Showcase highlighted third-party titles such as Monster Hunter Stories 3 and Octopath Traveler 0.
  • The event reflects Nintendo’s multi-phase strategy of alternating major Directs, partner showcases, and indie streams to sustain engagement and software momentum.
