Hey everyone! It's been a wild ride with Nintendo lately, hasn't it? We had showcases for third-party games, then the indies got their time to shine. All of this made me wonder when a big Nintendo Direct would drop. Turns out, we're getting one, but with a twist! Prepare yourselves, because today, it's all about Kirby Air Riders!

Nintendo is dedicating a whopping 45 minutes to this upcoming title! I know, right? It's a lot of Kirby Air Riders love, specially considering how short was the Donkey Kong Direct. For those eager to tune in, the show kicks off today at 2pm BST. If you're in Europe, that's 3pm CEST. And for my friends across the pond, it's 6am PDT/9am EDT/7am MDT/8am CDT. So, set your alarms!

You can catch the Kirby Air Riders Direct on YouTube. According to Nintendo, we're in for an "in-depth look" at the game. And get this, the presentation will be hosted by none other than Masahiro Sakurai himself! This man is a legend, having created not only Kirby Air Ride back in 2003 (which I personally think doesn't get enough love), but also the Smash Bros. series, which we all know and adore.

If your memory is a bit fuzzy, the only glimpse we've had of Kirby Air Riders so far is the announcement trailer from April. Maybe you should rewatch it while we wait for the full reveal today! I'm expecting tons of details about gameplay, new features, and hopefully a release date. Fingers crossed!
