Publisher Nintendo and developer Retro Studios have released a seven-minute overview trailer for first-person shooter sequel Metroid Prime 4: Beyond.
Get the latest details below.
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond begins with an attack on the Galactic Federation UTO Research Center by Samus’ sworn archrival Sylux. Samus answers the distress call and soon becomes entangled in an unexpected disaster. Awakening on the unknown planet of Viewros, she must fight to survive and escape.
Viewros is home to ferocious beasts, and diverse locales—including lush jungles, a factory beset with storms, a research lab frozen in ice and a facility nestled in a volcano—each connected by a central desert called Sol Valley. Employ tools like the Scan Visor and Samus’ core abilities—like the Power Beam, Missiles, form-altering Morph Ball and more—to gather information, fight, access new areas and find a way forward. Samus will also receive mysterious Psychic Abilities that enable her to manipulate energy, activate machinery, and more.
Freely traverse the roadless desert of Sol Valley on Vi-O-La, a vehicle left behind by an ancient civilization. Use Vi-O-La to counter attacks from approaching enemies, and smash crystals at high-speed to convert them into the energy you’ll need on your adventure. Plus, depending on her location, Samus can instantly summon and ride Vi-O-La.
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is due out for Switch 2 and Switch on December 4.
