Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Likely Hasn’t Shown Its Full Hand Yet

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is finally inching closer to its long-awaited release. First announced all the way back at Nintendo’s showcase at E3 2017, Metroid Prime 4: Beyond went through a long period of radio silence before finally seeing a gameplay reveal last year. Now, gamers are closer than ever to experiencing the proper follow-up to 2007’s Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

While Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is finally set for its long-awaited release this year, it feels like Nintendo and developer Retro Studios have been holding some of its cards close to their chests thus far. Gamers have only gotten to see some very short portions of the game, several of which seem to be the early stages of the game. As much excitement as the game has already created, it feels like Nintendo wants to save the game’s big hook until the game is closer to release.
