The 14 biggest announcements from Nintendo’s E3 2019 presentation

The last of the major E3 keynotes took place today, and it was a doozy. Nintendo’s presentation was filled with rapid-fire announcements — though not all of them were good. The long-awaited Animal Crossingon the Switch is delayed, but there are plenty of other things to look forward to, including new fighters for Smash Bros., a Link’s Awakening release date, and a whole bunch of ports. Check out all of the news you may have missed right here.

BREATH OF THE WILD IS GETTING A SEQUEL

The most shocking announcement was saved for last: Nintendo teased that a “full” sequel is in the works for the venerable Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. We don’t know anything else about the game, but it appears to have a much darker tone based on the brief snippet on display.
SUPER SMASH BROS. ULTIMATE GETS A PAIR OF NEW FIGHTERS

The latest combatants to join Smash Ultimateare the hero from Dragon Quest and fan-favorites Banjo-Kazooie, which help form an increasingly oddball cast. DQ’s hero is coming this summer and has the ability to shift forms, while Banjo will be out in the fall.
LUIGI’S MANSION 3 LOOKS GREAT

Luigi’s Mansion may not be the biggest Nintendo franchise, but the latest entry looks like it could help catapult the series to new heights. It’s a charming blend of horror and comedy, with more physical gameplay that lets you smash ghosts. Plus, there’s co-op play, with one person taking on the role of the unsettling Gooigi. Luigi’s Mansion 3 will launch on the Switch later this year.
DARK CRYSTAL MEETS FINAL FANTASY TACTICS

If you always wished Final Fantasy Tacticshad more of a Jim Henson vibe, this might be the game for you. The Switch is getting a new turn-based strategy game based on Netflix’s prequel called The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, and it looks like a surprisingly good fit.
LINK’S AWAKENING HAS A RELEASE DATE

The remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening looks as charming as ever, and now we know when it’ll be available to play: the Switch game will launch on September 20th. In addition to adorable visuals, the game also adds a new mode where you can design challenging dungeons to play through.
GERALT GOES PORTABLE

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt is one of the best role-playing games of the past decade, and soon, you’ll be able to play on the go. The definitive edition of the game is coming to the Switch, though it doesn’t have a release date just yet. Expect to play it later in 2019.

MORE RESIDENT EVIL ON THE SWITCH

You can already play plenty of Resident Evilgames on the Switch, and soon, two of the less-appreciated games in the survival horror series will be available as well. Both Resident Evil 5 and 6 will be launching this fall.
