If you're wondering what to play next on your Nintendo Switch, the big N has you covered. The company's latest Indie World showcase is kicking off today (August 18), promising a new look at exciting indie games coming to Nintendo's hybrid games machine.

While it's not quite a full-on Nintendo Direct, the company's Indie World showcases tend to show off a fair amount of notable indies coming to Switch, from world premieres to ports of beloved games from other platforms.

The most recent Nintendo Indie World took place back in March, and saw the reveal of such titles as Exit the Gungeon, The Last Campfire, Blue Fire and I Am Dead. So while you won't see any big Mario or Zelda reveals, you will see a lot of cool smaller games that you'll be able to play on your Switch and Switch Lite in the near future.
