Over the past few years, more and more time has passed with a whisper from Nintendo or Retro Studios about Metroid Prime 4: In addition, many fans have started asking the same question: Will it skip Switch and work on ‘Switch 2’ will it be released? ?

After all, the latest revival of the game came during the most recent Nintendo Direct after the firm has finally recognized the Switch’s successor and confirmed that it will be revealed within the next financial year. Many have come to the conclusion that if Prime 4 isn’t featured in the showcase, then there’s a good chance it won’t be making its way to the Switch.

Unfortunately, there was and it looks great. But he looked too Is it good for Switch? Some people think so, but IGN Digital Foundry’s Richard Leadbetter had a pretty positive comment about Metroid Prime 4: Beyond being a Switch game, at least based on the evidence so far:

“It looks great and there are some cool effects in there, we took a closer look, but ultimately all the evidence points to this game running on the original Switch. The internal rendering resolution is rated at 900p, which is the same as Metroid Prime Remastered.

“And as good as it is, there are some aliasing issues and even some minor framerate drops. Everything about the visual makeup is in line with a really well-made Switch game that Retro had a great experience with. I can imagine that the development studio is going to have people on Switch 2 really happy to connect with

So there you are. While we have no doubts that the game will work on Switch (or at least comparable PC hardware), we thought we’d put everyone’s minds to rest once and for all.

Now, we won’t completely rule out the possibility that Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will be a cross-generational release similar to Zelda: Twilight Princess and Breath of the Wild; the timing will likely line up very closely. But we think it’s a Switch game through and through, for now.
