Whispers of Metroid Prime classics making their way to the Switch have been circulating for years at this point, with the most recent scuttlebutt being that series creator Retro Studios was working on a remake/remaster of the original Metroid Prime. Well, today during the most recent Nintendo Direct the rumors were finally put to rest (in a positive way) as the Metroid Prime Remastered was finally announced and the game is launching... today? Yes, that's right, Nintendo is shadow-launching one of the Switch's longest-rumored and most-speculated-over games. The company works in mysterious ways.
The game looks to be a somewhat modest revamp of the original Metroid Prime. While assets have been redone in HD, the overall design and layout of the world haven't changed. Thankfully, controls have been updated for 2023, as you can opt for a dual-stick option if you so choose. You can check out the first trailer for the Metroid Prime Remastered for yourself, below.
Need to know about Metroid Prime Remastered? Here's the official rundown from Nintendo...
"The first Metroid Prime game has been remastered for Nintendo Switch with HD visuals and enhanced sound! Explore Tallon IV from the perspective of Samus Aran. But beware: There’s more to this alien planet than meets the eye. When hostile creatures attack, fight back with Beams, Missiles, Bombs and more.
In addition to remastered visuals, this version adds modern dual-stick controls, allowing you to move around while separately changing your point of view. It’s also the first time this classic game can be played on the go! The digital version of Metroid Prime Remastered launches in Nintendo eShop and in the My Nintendo Store on Nintendo.com … later today!"
The Metroid Prime Remastered is available digitally for Nintendo Switch today. A physical version of the game will be available on February 22.
