The company just held its latest Nintendo Direct where it announced some exciting games for the Switch. What was announced? What should you be excited about? Let\u2019s dive in! Here are the top announcements during the June 2023 Nintendo Direct.<br \/>\nThe showcase featured a full 40 minutes of announcements for the Nintendo Switch. Some of the games were surprises like a new Super Mario Bros. game (we\u2019ll get to that later in the article). Other games are long-awaited titles (like the fourth installment to a certain adorable gaming franchise).<br \/>\nJune 2023 Nintendo Direct rundown: Major announcements<br \/>\nLet\u2019s start off with some of the headlining announcements. These are games that really stole the show and are sure to get the majority of the fans jumping to click the Pre-order\u00a0button.<br \/>\nPikmin 4<br \/>\nIt\u2019s been nearly 10 years since the last Pikmin game graced us, and we were all wondering when the next one was going to come. Well, Nintendo finally dropped the trailer for this Pikmin 4.<br \/>\nIn this game, you\u2019ll crash land on a strange new world (familiar, huh?) and meet the plant-like creatures called Pikmin. You\u2019ll gather and use the Pikmin to perform tasks and solve puzzles. As you explore, you\u2019ll find different pieces to repair your ship and eventually leave the planet.<br \/>\nNew additions to the franchise include a new canine creature called Otchi who will be crucial to your journey. Also, for the first time, you\u2019ll be able to explore at night.<br \/>\nLaunch: July 21st, 2023.<br \/>\nPokemon Scarlet\/Violet Hidden Treasures of Area Zero<br \/>\nThis is a new DLC pack released for Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. It\u2019s called \u201cHidden Treasures of Area Zero\u201d, and it involves two new adventures. The first one is called The Teal Mask, and it takes place during a festival in the countryside. On the opposite side of the coin, the second adventure, \u201cThe Indigo Disk\u201d takes place in a futuristic academy.<br \/>\nInformation on these paid DLC packs will come out in the future.<br \/>\nLaunch: TBA<br \/>\nSuper Mario RPG Remake<br \/>\nIf you enjoyed\u00a0 Super Mario RPG back in the SNES days, then you\u2019ll be excited about this upcoming title. This is a from-the-ground-up remake of the original game, so the graphics, animations, music, and everything else have been revamped for the Switch.<br \/>\nWhile this is a remake, it will still play faithful to the original installment. So, you\u2019ll still embark on an adventure with turn-based combat and all of the original characters.<br \/>\nLaunch: November 17th, 2023<br \/>\nUpcoming unnamed Peach game<br \/>\nDuring the presentation, the company showed off some footage of a new adventure surrounding Princess Peach. It looks like it takes place on a stage as if it\u2019s all a play. She uses some light magic attacks and it seems that something special happens to her when she stands on a particular spot on the stage. It was only a teaser, so there\u2019s not much information available.<br \/>\nLaunch: Sometime next year<br \/>\nSuper Mario Bros. Wonder<br \/>\nThis is the next 2.5D Super Mario Bros. adventure. Just like the Super Mario Bros. games we\u2019ve grown up with, you\u2019ll be running through different levels with a plethora of different characters from the franchise.<br \/>\nAs you play, you\u2019ll pick up different powers that will have certain effects. Since this is a new game, the company is introducing some new items. Starting off with the Wonder Flower, this will open up a completely different version of the stage where a bunch of wild and crazy things happen. This is the headlining feature of this game.<br \/>\nAlso, there\u2019s a new mushroom that will turn Mario into an elephant. So, there\u2019s that. Also, along the way, you\u2019ll see different talking flowers.<br \/>\nLaunch: October 10th, 2023<br \/>\nHere are the other exciting announcements<br \/>\nNow, let\u2019s get into some more exciting announcements from the company.<br \/>\nSonic Superstars<br \/>\nWe\u2019ve been talking about a lot of Mario stuff, but our boy Sonic isn\u2019t exactly empty-handed. Nintendo announced that Sonic Superstars will be coming to the Nintendo Switch in the fall this year.<br \/>\nIt\u2019s an all-new adventure where you can play as either Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, or Amy. You\u2019ll be racing through different beautiful worlds while discovering some new powers. Also, for the first time in the series, there\u2019s four-person multiplayer.<br \/>\nLaunch: Sometime this Fall<br \/>\nPersona 5 Tactics<br \/>\nSonic Superstars wasn\u2019t the only SEGA title announced. Those who love Persona will love the new turn-based spin-off of Persona 5. In this game, your team finds themselves in an unfamiliar world. There, they meet a person named Erina who\u2019s fighting off an army that\u2019s trying to invade that world.<br \/>\nLaunch: November 17th, 2023 (Pre-orders start today)<br \/>\nLuigi\u2019s Mansion Dark Moon remastered<br \/>\nThe second installment in the Luigi\u2019s Mansion series is going to be making its way to the Nintendo Switch. It will have improved visuals that will utilize the more powerful hardware.<br \/>\nLaunch: Sometime next year<br \/>\nDetective Pikachu Returns<br \/>\nThe popular game that spawned a popular movie is back. Detective Pikachu Returns takes you on a new adventure with your adorable Pikachu who loves coffee. More information will come out in the future.<br \/>\nLaunch: TBA<br \/>\nBatman Arkham Trilogy<br \/>\nThe smash-hit Batman Arkham series of games is now making its way to the Switch (well, most of them). This is a pack of three games: Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City, and Batman: Arkham Knight. Batman: Arkham Origins is not part of this package, as it\u2019s not a part of the trilogy. The games will involve all of the DLC, as well.<br \/>\nLaunch: Sometime this Fall<br \/>\nMario + Rabbids: The Last Spark Hunter<br \/>\nThere\u2019s a new DLC for Mario + Rabbids: Sparks Of Hope. In the DLC, your team of characters happens upon a musical planet. There, they\u2019ll fight off new enemies and discover new wonders.<br \/>\nLaunch: Available now<br \/>\nVampire Survivor on Switch<br \/>\nThe hit game Vampire Survivor is officially launching on the Nintendo Switch. This is a survivor game where you\u2019re facing hordes of terrifying monsters. You\u2019re tasked with surviving 30 rounds of increasing enemies.

However, that might not be enough.<br \/>\nLaunch: August 17th, 2023<br \/>\nDragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince<br \/>\nThis is a new game that puts a different spin on the Dragon Quest series.
