This is the second Metroid game that Nintendo has released on Switch. And if rumors are correct, we have yet to see a lot more. It is being said that Metroid Prime 2 and Metroid Prime 3 are also going to release for this console sooner or later. And we are inclined to believe it would happen sooner. Most likely before the reveal of Nintendo’s new console.

It is being said that Nintendo would start talking about this upcoming console sometime in the second half of 2023. As these are just rumors for now. We suggest everyone take this info with a grain of salt.
