Date officially revealed for next Nintendo Direct

Were you eager to find out when the next Nintendo Direct would be? Nintendo announced the date – January 23, 2026 – on Twitter, and also shared a preview of what the presentation will cover.

Nintendo has announced its next Direct presentation will be held on January 25, 2026, at 6:00 AM Pacific Time. These presentations typically last about an hour, though they can range from a shorter 30 minutes to a longer two hours, depending on the announcements planned.

So, what is Nintendo planning for its next Direct?

What we know about the next Nintendo Direct

The next Nintendo Direct, happening on January 25th, is likely to focus on the new Super Mario Galaxy movie, scheduled to come out on April 3, 2026.

Nintendo has indicated that this upcoming Direct presentation won’t include announcements about new games.

Nintendo recently announced on Twitter that this presentation won’t share details about the game itself. However, we can expect to see some new characters not featured in earlier trailers, and possibly a preview of the planets Mario and Luigi will be visiting.

This event will probably be brief. However, Nintendo has already announced major news coming in February for both the 30th anniversary of Pokémon and the 40th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda, meaning we’ll definitely see at least two Nintendo Direct presentations next month.

The event will be watchable here.
