All the news from Nintendo’s August Indie World showcase

Nintendo’s latest livestreamed event is highlighting the smattering of indie games coming to the Switch consoles later this year, and the Indie World Showcase is scheduled to start on Thursday, August 7th, at 9 AM ET.

Hades 2 might make an appearance, and there’s a slim chance the long-awaited Hollow Knight: Silksong might show up as well. It’s a 15-minute showcase, and while I’m not expecting any earth-shattering announcements, I am looking forward to seeing the games that’ll pad my Switch 2 library while I wait for news on the bigger titles like Metroid Prime 4.

In its recent earnings report, Nintendo shared that it sold nearly six million Switch 2 consoles since the system’s launch in June, so there are a lot of people waiting for some new games to play, indie or otherwise. Nintendo has also raised the price of the original Switch in response to US tariff policy.

Even though there aren’t that many Switch 2 exclusives out there yet, Nintendo, through back-to-back directs, is working to ensure people know what other games will be available to play. This event is streaming live on YouTube, and you can read on below for all of the updates as they’re announced.
