Yes. Although Nintendo showed nothing but a logo during the company’s E3 presentation, Metroid Prime 4 is real. And it will come to Switch.
The critically acclaimed series started with Metroid Prime in 2002. That game and its sequels, Metroid Prime 2 (2004) and Metroid Prime 3 (2007), were all developed by Retro Studios and are widely considered to be some of the best games ever made.
Nintendo has not said who is developing Metroid Prime 4. Some sources suggest that we won’t see it until 2019, but perhaps it can make it out for holiday 2018, depending on how far along things are.
