Nintendo has announced that the next Indie World Showcase event is coming up very soon. Like, so soon that we're only a few hours away from it. The next broadcast will take place today, August 11, beginning at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET. You can expect to hear at least a few of those little "click" sound effects when they show a new game.

The event is about 20 minutes long and it will have "information on upcoming indie games" that are in the works for Nintendo Switch. Nintendo did not provide any insight on specific games that will be featured on the show.

You can watch the event live on YouTube through the video player below. As mentioned, the broadcast begins at 9 AM PT, and you can see more times below.

Start Times:

This is the first new Indie World event since April, when Nintendo revealed more details on games like Road 96, Aerial Knight's Never Yield, Last Stop, Hindsight, OlliOlli World, The Longing, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge, and Aztech: Forgotten Gods.

We'll report back with all the big news from this event as they're announced. This is happening as the Switch continues to soar, with Nintendo just recently announcing that lifetime sales of the system have passed 89 million units.

It's not just Nintendo that is spotlighting indie games this week, as Microsoft is holding its next ID@Xbox event today, August 10, starting at 9 AM PT / 12 PM ET.
