Nintendo has yet to reveal another Nintendo Direct. However, the company is going to offer something for people this week. A Nintendo Treehouse Live July 2020 video will look at two upcoming games at 10am PT/1pm ET/7pm CET on July 10, 2020. One is Paper Mario: The Origami King, a title we know about. The other is an entirely new WayForward game.
The thing is, the new WayForward game is an interesting puzzle. In the announcement, Nintendo noted the developer approaching a franchise it has never worked with before. The Nintendo Treehouse Live July 2020 segment will be an opportunity to not only announce it, but show off in-game footage.
Here’s Nintendo’s tweet revealing the event.
