Nintendo Partner Direct announced, so will we finally hear an Elden Ring Switch release date or more about The Duskbloods?

Nintendo has announced a Direct showcase for later this week.

This Direct will be focused on third-party releases, the company has said. As for the when and where, you will be able to watch the partner showcase on YouTube tomorrow, 5th February, at 2pm UK time.

“The livestreamed presentation will feature roughly 30 minutes of upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch games from publishing and development partners,” Nintendo said of tomorrow’s Direct.

So, what can we hope to see? Well, I am sure many of you are champing at the bit to find out a release date for Elden Ring on Switch 2. When it does arrive on Nintendo’s console, Elden Ring: Tarnished Edition (as it is known) will include two new classes for players to choose from when they set off for the Lands Between.

Then, sticking with the FromSoft, we are also still quite light on news about The Duskbloods. Announced last year, The Duskbloods is a “PvPvE title with online multiplayer”, which features up to eight participants vying for “supremacy among themselves and against challenging foes”. It is quite an eclectic offering by the looks of things, complete with jetpacks, creepy moons and, erm, dinosaurs!?

We may also get to see something Indiana Jones and the Great Circle-flavoured tomorrow. This chap was announced for Switch 2 last year, so a release date isn’t out of the question.

What do you hope turns up during tomorrow’s Nintendo Partner Direct?
