Nintendo Direct 2021 Games, DLC, & Updates Revealed
Nintendo Direct delivered several indie and third party games. Accordingly, release dates tend to fall around 2022. During the Direct, Nintendo teased the following games: Chocabo gp, Castlevania Collection, Monster Hunter Rise, Bayonetta 3, and Disco Elysium. Let’s check out some of the games announced in their direct.
Third Games Revealed in Nintendo Direct 2021
1. Chocabo GP
First, Chocabo GP. If this one feels familiar. It is because it’s based on the popular Mario Kart concepts. In fact, it does feel like a direct rip of the game. Which, if you ask me, is a little lazy. But, will it be enjoyable? Yes.
If you enjoyed Mario Kart, you will enjoy this family friendly Final Fantasy meets racing game. Instead of power ups, it will be called spells but yes it works in the same way. Since, Mario Kart has been out a long time it may be getting stale for some. So, if you are looking for different tracks to play, this will satisfy that need until the next Mario Kart release.
