Nintendo announced a handful of new games, re-releases, and downloadable content coming to the Nintendo Switch early this year, including the brand new Mario Tennis Aces and a remastered version of Dark Souls.

The Nintendo Direct Mini released Thursday laid out Nintendo's plans for the first half of the year on the Nintendo Switch. The big new releases include Mario Tennis Aces coming this spring, Fe coming Feb. 16, and Celeste coming Jan. 25.

Re-releases and remasters include the highly acclaimed Dark Souls: Remastered coming May 25, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze coming May 4, Payday 2 coming Feb. 27, and Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition coming this spring.

Nintendo also announced downloadable content coming to some of its biggest releases of the last year. Super Mario Odyssey is getting a new competitive balloon-hiding and hunting mode and new outfits for Mario in February, and Mario + Rabbids: Battle Kingdom is getting Donkey Kong as a playable character this spring.
