Background

The next Nintendo Direct presentation is scheduled for April 2, 2025, and is expected to primarily focus on the Nintendo Switch 2. While Nintendo has not officially confirmed the content lineup for this presentation, the Kirby franchise remains one of Nintendo's popular IPs that could potentially make an appearance.

Resolution Criteria

This market will resolve as YES if the Kirby franchise appears in any form during the April 2, 2025 Nintendo Direct presentation. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Verbal mentions of Kirby by presenters

• Visual depictions of Kirby characters

• Announcements of new Kirby games

• Updates to existing Kirby games

• Kirby-related merchandise or collaborations

• Kirby appearing in other games (e.g., Super Smash Bros.)

• Brief cameos or references to Kirby

The market will resolve as NO if the Kirby franchise does not appear in any form during the presentation.

Considerations

Nintendo Directs can sometimes include surprise announcements, and content lineups are rarely confirmed in advance. While rumors suggest a new Kirby game might be announced in early 2025, there is currently no official confirmation that Kirby will be featured in this specific Direct presentation.
