Nintendo schedules a Direct presentation for Friday, September 12, 2025, beginning at 6 am Pacific Time. The event occurs one day before Super Mario Bros. celebrates its 40th anniversary milestone. This marks the second general Direct presentation of 2025, with previous events focusing on specific games or the Switch 2 console. The Nintendo Today mobile application first revealed the announcement. The presentation will span approximately 60 minutes.
The company plans to showcase upcoming titles for both Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch platforms. Industry observers anticipate a release date announcement for Metroid Prime 4 Beyond during the broadcast. The game received a rating in South Korea during July and appeared at Toronto's Fan Expo with playable demonstrations. Mario franchise news appears likely given the anniversary timing. Nintendo may reveal details about the next mainline 3D Mario title development.
