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)

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!

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 2 weeks 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
