Nintendo will debut the first public hands-on demo in the U.S. for the all-new vehicular action game Kirby Air Riders, developed by game director Masahiro Sakurai. Gamers will also have a chance to catch, battle and Mega Evolve Pokémon in real time while playing the Pokémon Legends: Z-A – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition game demo.

In another booth, located right around the corner, Nintendo will have gamers adventure through the vast, haunted kingdom of Hollow Knight: Silksong, let them wreak havoc and score epic in-game loot in Borderlands 4, quest through The Lands Between in ELDEN RING Tarnished Edition, battle for the soul of Midgar in FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE INTERGRADE, and master dark sorcery in a quest to defeat the Titan of Time in Hades II.
