Two years ago, at E3, Nintendo teased Metroid Prime 4. Fast track to E3 2021, and instead of following up on the past announcement, we instead got our first taste of a brand new game titled Metroid Dread. In Metroid Dread, Samus Aran returns for her first 2D Metroid story in 19 years. The intergalactic bounty hunter is sent to investigate a remote planet overrun by hostile alien lifeforms and chilling mechanical menaces.
