Hello!
I received an email from a developer recently (I'm a content creator) asking me if I was interested in a code for a game that launches next week on Switch, which I personally wasn't but the game will be exciting for some action fans.
Usually, when this happens, the publisher will ask for me to sign an NDA before sharing any info at all, including even what the game is. Oddly enough, they did not do that this time or ask me not to share this information at all so it's all fair game. That said, out of respect for their surprise, I will not say what game or developer it is.
With that out of the way, the game is scheduled to drop on Switch next Wednesday with the embargo for coverage also being on Wednesday, June 15. It is going to be one of the shadow drops during the Nintendo Direct. Since the embargo is set for, specifically, 9 am PT, I presume that the Nintendo Direct will happen at 9 am PT on Wednesday, June 15.
As a side note, this lines up with what some other developers (that I did sign NDAs for) sent to me.
Hyped to watch with you guys next week!
Edit:
Eh, screw it, I'm bored tonight so here's an edited screenshot. Sorry, only the mods will know what game it is. :P
Also, I tagged this as a rumor originally since I cannot confirm this for you guys but it is all but confirmed for me due to some other stuff I signed NDAs for that line up too well with it. If it helps any, as I mentioned in a comment below, this Switch console exclusive was originally announced in a Direct and I expect it to be shadow dropped in one as well.
Finally, I'm surprised no one has wondered why I think the Direct is Wednesday but not Thursday? Well, that's because of some other info I didn't share that hint at it plus the fact that I believe (but don't know since I didn't get a code) that they set the gameplay/video embargo for Thursday morning since the game will likely come out at different times throughout Wednesday, probably especially for Steam players.
