The announcement of this new title had some worried that the long-awaited Metroid 4, which was announced during Nintendo’s E3 showcase in 2017, was canceled. Two years after the announcement, with no other news about the title, Nintendo revealed that it would still be some time before we saw the game hit Nintendo Switch consoles, as the company decided to scrap what they had of the project and begin again.
“Currently, we’re working hard on the latest game in the Metroid Prime series, Metroid Prime 4, which we previously announced,” Shinya Takahashi said during the recent presentation. “But today, we’d like to introduce another new entry in the Metroid franchise.”
Shinya provided no other information on the title.
Despite the delay, though, it seems as though there are still plans to release Metroid Prime 4, though we likely won’t see the title for another year at least.
