After the start of Metroid Prime Remastered, fans of the license should not be at the end of their surprise. One point on the latest rumor to date.
Rumors have circulated for months that Big N has put an end to the players’ ordeal. During February’s Nintendo Direct, the Japanese company released on Switch following their Metroid Prime Remastered event. The sounds of the corridors, however, indicated that the other two games in the saga were also on their way. A insider
Metroid Prime 2 & 3 coming to Nintendo Switch soon?
The most famous bounty hunter in video games is back in action. If players were hoping for pictures of the Arlesian Metroid 4, they were finally rewarded with one remaster the very first episode of the license. Long mentioned and never confirmed until the last Nintendo Direct, the Gamecube title is now available on Nintendo Switch in digital version. A surprise release that raises many questions about the widely acclaimed Metroid Trilogy HD. Can we expect the same treatment for the other two episodes?
The often well-informed Jeff Grubb claims these versions revised Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption were in development on Nintendo Switch as announced in the past. It is therefore very likely that Big N will want to spread the release of the three games over a longer period of time in preparation for the arrival of the long-awaited Metroid Prime 4, of which we have no news yet. However, he reiterates that the two titles in question are not entitled to such a comprehensive treatment as Metroid Prime Remastered, especially in terms of visual optimizations and gameplay improvements.
Metroid Prime 2 and 3 Remastered should therefore be closer to the original versions than the title currently available on Nintendo Switch. Enough to allow a whole generation of new players to discover these great classics. However, it will be necessary to arm yourself with a little more patience to discover these possible projects.
