The Metroid Prime 4: Beyond game launches December 4, 2025, only on the Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch systems.

When responding to a distress call from the Galactic Federation, Samus Aran becomes entangled in an unexpected disaster. Now, she must explore the unknown planet Viewros in this first-person adventure.

Master Samus's core abilities, ride Vi-O-La through Sol Valley, and make use of mysterious powers called Psychic Abilities as you fight to survive and find a way home in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.

Nintendo Switch 2 players who have Metroid Prime 4: Beyond on Nintendo Switch can upgrade to the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition by purchasing the upgrade pack.

Apparently all reviewers are talking about a very annoying companion that is present for hand-holding, like telling you to save etc.

(Haven't read the reviews myself, but heard about it)

[–] picandocodigo@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh no... I've been avoiding reviews or any more previews, but that sounds like an annoying Nintendoism 🫤 I wonder if they believe it's going to bring a massive amount of new people into the franchise, adding hand-holding and making it easier to get into (when it's the fourth installment in the series... and you can officially only play the first one on modern hardware). I don't know, we'll have to wait and see, I'm looking forward to it!

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, same here. Rest of the stuff is getting good reviews (again, from what I have heard), plan to get it day-1. Hope hand-holding isn't too bad.

motorcyle+hyrule field and team actions has me worried, but they have my simp ass

Sorry but I lost it at the narrators delivery of “Your core abilities include […] the ability to jump.” 🤣

Nintendo has a unique knack for making this stuff sound as boring as possible, don’t they?

[–] ApollosArrow@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I wishing the ability to jump hadn’t been spoiled by the trailer. There’s really no reason to play the game anymore.

Man, I was hoping this would be a Nintendo Switch 2 edition of the Switch 2 itself. Looks cool though
