Fire Emblem: Three Houses marks the long-running strategy RPG series’ debut on Nintendo Switch. It’s among the biggest franchises Nintendo has planned for this year, and now we know it will be a mid-summer treat. During the company’s latest Nintendo Direct presentation, it announced a release date of July 26.

For devotees of the series, the Direct also announced a collector’s edition. The Seasons of Warfare Edition will include an artbook, sound selection CD, calendar, and steelbook case.

Fire Emblem was the centerpiece of the Nintendo Direct presentation, taking most of its time with tons of new details. We saw combat in action, the way cutscenes will integrate into battle sequences, and a lot more story details. You’ll be the head of the Officer’s Academy, which is composed of three houses–the Black Eagles, Blue Lions, or Golden Deer–and are tasked with training the students and assisting in their studies. Check out all the new details we learned.

A demo for Yoshi’s Crafted World is coming to Switch soon–later today, in fact. During the February 2019 Nintendo Direct (see all the news from it here), the company announced the demo with a short trailer that also showed off some gameplay and a preview of Yoshi’s adorable costumes.

Nintendo didn’t specify exactly what today’s new demo will include, but the trailer featured Yoshi rafting, racing solar cars, and flying a plane. It also detailed how you can use in-game coins to craft cardboard costumes for Yoshi, which function like armor. This includes a Nintendo Labo-themed outfit in the shape of the piano.

Yoshi’s Crafted World was first revealed during E3 2017. It appears to play similarly to previous Yoshi games and features a perspective-shifting mechanic in a cardboard diorama-like world. It is set to release on Nintendo Switch on March 29.

If you haven’t already, you can catch up on all the biggest news from the latest Nintendo Direct here, but the showstopper was new Zelda game for the Switch. Nintendo closed out its latest Direct presentation by unveiling a remake of the beloved Game Boy game The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, which is being “reborn as a new experience” on the hybrid console later this year.

Nintendo didn’t share many details about the Link’s Awakening remake, but it retains the same top-down perspective as the original, making it the first new 2D Zelda game for Switch. It also features a visual style reminiscent of A Link Between Worlds, the 3DS follow-up to A Link to the Past.

Link’s Awakening originally launched for Game Boy back in 1993, with an updated color version (dubbed Link’s Awakening DX) following in 1998. Unlike most other games in the series, it isn’t set in Hyrule, but rather the mysterious Koholint Island. After being shipwrecked, Link washes ashore the island and can only escape by retrieving eight magical instruments and waking the isle’s guardian, the Wind Fish.

Nintendo announced a ton of other Switch games during its latest direct presentation, including Super Mario Maker 2, which is slated to launch this June. As promised, we also got a closer look at Fire Emblem: Three Houses, which is now coming to Switch on July 26.
