This month has been full of surprises and announcements. One of the latest shows to debut was Nintendo Direct 2024, and it unveiled a ton of interesting games. Here are four fantastic games unveiled at Nintendo Direct 2024.
New The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Game Announced
We weren’t expecting to get another Zelda game so soon, especially after last year’s Tears of the Kingdom debut, but we’re definitely not complaining. Nintendo’s latest installment in the series is The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and it’s a cute, cartoony adventure game based on the adventures of the titular Zelda. In this brand-new story, Zelda must save the people of Hyrule from strange rifts that have appeared all over the world. Zelda’s journey introduces puzzles, enemy battles, and a fresh new journey for fans to enjoy. The game officially arrives on Nintendo Switch this approaching September 26, 2024.
Mario & Luigi: Brothership Is the Series’ Sixth Installment and It’s All About Island Adventures
Mario & Luigi: Brothership is the series’ sixth main installment and it brings players to the vast world of Concordia. Players will get to “explore islands that range from tropical rainforests to bustling cities.” It’s a fresh title that introduces a fun adventure full of puzzles, turn-based fights, and encounters, and players who have played previous games will discover a lot of hidden treasures and familiar characters along the way. Mario & Luigi: Brothership officially debuts on Nintendo Switch this coming November 7, 2024.
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Officially Unveiled With Announcement Trailer
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond has officially been announced and it’s everything fans want.
