After a Zelda-focused Nintendo Direct on Tuesday -- where we got an in-depth look at the Ocarina of Time remake and news of a Zelda-themed Nintendo Switch 2 -- a second stream gave us a peek at what else is in store from the company and its partners. Wednesday's Direct was mainly about games that are coming to Switch 2 this winter, but it also included titles for Switch and others that are further out.

The release date was revealed at the end of a lengthy segment in today's Zelda-focused Nintendo Direct.
