Nintendo knows we all want a new Nintendo Direct, but hopes have been somewhat dashed after it announced the release date for its next big game on social media and its news app.People ask for a Nintendo Direct pretty much every week, but given that Nintendo hasn't held a traditional one yet this year, some assumed that we'd need to be getting one soon. This is mostly down to the fact that Pokemon Pokopia was the latest Switch 2 game with a date on the release calendar, with dates for Splatoon Raiders, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, and Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave unaccounted for.But you can now cross one of those off the list, as Nintendo decided to celebrate Mario Day by releasing a new trailer for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, which in turn revealed that the Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive platformer will be releasing on May 21, 2026.
