METROID PRIME 4: BEYOND – NINTENDO SWITCH 2 EDITION ARRIVES ON NINTENDO SWITCH 2 TODAY

Samus Aran, the galaxy’s greatest bounty hunter, must explore planet Viewros and wield new psychic abilities to find a way home in Metroid Prime 4: Beyond – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, launching today for Nintendo Switch 2. The Nintendo Switch version of the game also launches today.

After an unexpected accident during a clash with the enigmatic bounty hunter Sylux, Samus finds herself transported to a strange new planet. She’ll need to thoroughly explore this hostile alien world if she’s to make it off the planet alive. As she battles terrifying threats, Samus navigates her way through labyrinthine environments, and discovers new abilities and upgrades to power her pursuit of its secrets.

Upon arrival, Samus is granted new psychic abilities by the Lamorn, an alien race that once existed on Viewros and now makes a solemn request of her. Using these abilities, she’s able to operate mechanisms, control the trajectory of charged shots and more, granting access to previously inaccessible areas.

As her adventure progresses, Samus also acquires a vehicle called Vi-O-La. Equipped with advanced features, she can ride it across the planet, using unique weaponry to fight enemies. Several Galactic Federation Troopers find themselves unexpectedly transported to Viewros as well and will help Samus out as they look for a way home together.
