Nintendo Indie World Showcase April 17: How To Watch And Start Time

Nintendo has announced that it will be hosting a new Indie World game showcase tomorrow, April 17. Here's how to watch and what to expect. [Update: The event is now over and you can rewatch it in full below. We've also got a roundup of all the Nintendo Indie World announcements, including the reveal of SteamWorld Heist 2.]

Start time

The live presentation is scheduled to begin at 7 AM PT / 10 AM ET on Wednesday, and the announcement said that it will last "roughly 20 minutes." No specific games, announcements, or developers have been confirmed for the event prior to this writing. However, Nintendo's announcement specified that the games revealed will arrive on Switch in 2024.

How to watch

Audiences who want to watch the Indie World showcase on April 17 live can do so through three ways: Nintendo's official YouTube and Twitch channels, as well as the official Indie World website. We will also have the stream available right here on GameSpot. Nintendo will upload everything that it reveals, including adding individual trailers for each announcement.

The last Indie World showcase premiered back in November 2023 and featured announcements such as Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution, Moonstone Island, and Outer Wilds: Archeologist Edition.

The one game on everyone's mind is Hollow Knight: Silksong, and there's a chance that it might actually finally appear. The game was rated in Australia yesterday and in South Korea in February. Additionally, the Microsoft Store opened a page for it on April 1. While fans have gotten their hopes up in the past, these actions point to a possible reveal at tomorrow's showcase.
