Nintendo confirmed today that it would be hosting a huge Direct announcement tomorrow, February 17, 2021. As expected, the announcement tweet did not come with specific details on what players should look forward to in the presentation. However, Nintendo did reveal that it will focus the 50-minute long Direct on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and several upcoming Switch games slated to release in the first half of 2021.
Of course, Nintendo’s Direct announcement caused quite a stir online, especially since this will be Nintendo’s first Direct presentation for the year. Luckily, for fans waiting to see an update on their favorite games, the presentation is just around the corner. Here are some predictions on what players should expect to see in tomorrow’s Nintendo Direct.
Given that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was mentioned in Nintendo’s tweet, it is nearly guaranteed that a good chunk of the Direct presentation will be dedicated to the fighting game. However, what exactly Nintendo plans to reveal about Super Smash Bros. Ultimate remains to be seen, though it will likely be the next DLC fighter. It is worth remembering that the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC roster’s latest addition was Sepiroth from Final Fantasy 7. For several months now, rumors and speculation on which character would appear in the game have been rampant online, so fans would have to watch the presentation to know more.
Additionally, Nintendo could reveal upcoming Spirit Board Events and in-game tournaments players can participate in. Since the game’s release, Nintendo has been adding several Spirit Board Events that allowed players to obtain all kinds of Spirits, which helps players in their local multiplayer battles throughout Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s World of Light campaign.
Moreover, it is still possible that Nintendo would release another Fighter Pass for the game despite the director saying last year that there are no more plans for a 3rd Fighter Pass. While this one may be a bit of a stretch, times change, and it wouldn’t be surprising if a new Fighter Pass is in the cards for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
As far as other big announcements go, it is possible that tomorrow’s Direct Presentation would touch on the highly anticipated sequel of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 2. It is worth remembering that Breath of the Wild 2 was first announced at E3 2019, though Nintendo has remained mostly silent on the game’s development since. Although Nintendo would likely host a dedicated Zelda Direct to update fans of the game’s progress, it is worth noting that February 21 marks the 35th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda franchise. The presentation’s timing would be the perfect venue to reveal more about Breath of the Wild 2 and commemorate the franchise as a whole.
At the moment, Nintendo’s 2021 release schedule has been mostly unknown at this point, which is strange given that both Sony and Microsoft have already revealed some of its lineup of games for the PS5 and Xbox Series X. However, this means that Nintendo could announce pretty much anything, and it is exciting to see what the company has in store for the Switch console in 2021.
Some of the possibilities include the long-rumored Pokemon Diamond and Pearl Remakes, Mario Kart 9, a new Fire Emblem game, and many more. The presentation could also include updates on some of the announced Switch games such as Bravely Default 2, releasing later this month, or Monster Hunter Rise, coming to the Switch in March.
At this point, almost anything is possible, which is why players should tune in to the Nintendo Direct which will be live-streamed online on February 17 at 2 PM PT.
