Nintendo Direct: New WarioWare Coming In August 2018

A new WarioWare game is coming this year. Nintendo kicked off today's Direct presentation with the reveal of WarioWare Gold, a new microgame compilation arriving for 3DS in August.

Like the recent Mario Party: The Top 100, WarioWare Gold is a collection of some of the series' most popular microgames. It features 300 new and returning activities in total, making it the largest WarioWare game to date. Players will have to use the handheld's touchscreen, mic, gyroscope, and other features to play the microgames.

In addition to the new and returning games, WarioWare Gold stars many familiar characters from the series, who sport a new look in the upcoming title. The game releases in stores and the Eshop on August 3.

WarioWare Gold was one of the many new games Nintendo revealed during today's Direct presentation. The company also announced a 3DS remake of the original Luigi's Mansion, as well as a Super Smash Bros. game for Switch.
