Everything announced in the Nintendo Direct

This morning, the Nintendo gods blessed us with 50 solid minutes of news about upcoming Switch releases in the first Nintendo Direct of 2021 - in fact, the first one in over 17 months. While we weren't given an update on the long-awaited Breath of the Wild sequel (that news will likely come later in the year), Zelda fans will be happy to know there's still something on its way.

Here's a roundup of all the titles announced today.

First launched on the Wii back in 2011, a remastered version of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is coming to the Switch, with eShop pre-orders kicking off tonight. In addition to improved graphics, those frustrated with the original game's motion controls will be pleased to know Nintendo has remapped the controls to make use of the analog sticks, in addition to optional motion controls. Additionally, new special edition Skyward Sword Joy-Cons will launch alongside the game on July 16.

It's time to hit the fairway with Mario and pals in the all-new Mario Golf: Super Rush. You can use your Joy-Con as a golf club thanks to motion controls, suss out the course's terrain, play with your friends and even turn your Mii into a golf champ with Story Mode. The title launches on June 25.

Splatoon goes Mad Max in Splatoon 3, the final title announced in this Nintendo Direct. We don't really know much about the game itself (which isn't even dropping till 2022), but you can catch the teaser trailer below.

It's not the snappiest name we've ever seen (even if it is just the working title), but nevertheless, Square Enix's Project Triangle Strategy looks like a worthy successor to the popular Octopath Traveler. Again, it's not launching until next year, but you can grab a demo on the Nintendo eShop right now.

Telltale's 2014 episodic point-and-click title Tales from the Borderlands is getting a re-release on all platforms, including a Switch port, which lands on March 24. Check it out below.
