While these developments bode well for the game’s final quality, it doesn’t give us any indication of when it will be ready to be shown again.Īs for what Metroid Prime 4 will be about, once again we don’t have a whole lot to go off of. Producer Kensuke Tanabe, who also served in this role on the first three games and Metroid Prime: Hunters, is back, as well. It announced early in 2019 that development was restarting, this time via Retro Studios, the American studio behind the first three Metroid Prime games. In the grand scheme of things, the real answer is “almost nothing,” but there are a few things we’ve come to understand about Metroid Prime 4’s development.Īccording to reports, Metroid Prime 4’s development initially began under Bandai Namco rather than an internal Nintendo studio, but Nintendo was unhappy with the game’s quality at the time.
Nintendo’s earnings reports continue to only list Metroid Prime 4’s release as TBA.
During this second update, Nintendo’s Shinya Takahashi said it would be missing its internal release target for the game, but since we don’t know what that is, it’s unclear when we can expect Metroid Prime 4. Nintendo has not revealed a release date for Metroid Prime 4, simply stating that the game was “in development” during E3 2017 before later offering an apology for the wait back in 2019. While it might not be much, here’s everything we know about Metroid Prime 4 and ahead of this year’s “Not-E3” and Summer Game Fest. The long-awaited sequel has gone through a bit of a tumultuous development period, even restarting development back in 2019.
However, for all the hype surrounding the game, there’s just as much mystery. With all this buildup, it feels safe to say the upcoming sci-fi adventure game is one of the most-anticipated titles coming to the Nintendo Switch. It’s been nearly 15 years since Metroid Prime 3: Corruption hit the Nintendo Wii back in 2007, and another five since its follow-up, Metroid Prime 4, was first announced.
