Look, I know it’s rude to get a sequel to a game after 19 years and then talk about the future. I’m incredibly grateful that we finally got Metroid V, and I’m even more grateful that it ended up being the elusive Metroid Dread. I’m even more pleased that Sakamoto and Mercury Steam managed to successfully continue a 35-year-old series with possibly its best entry yet.
Metroid Dread is my GOTY. I’m a huge Metroid fan, and up until this year, Metroid Fusion was still my favourite entry. I always loved the 2D side more than Prime (nothing against Prime, I also really love those games), because I love a tight seven to eight-hour action game that I can replay and improve in.
So finally getting another 2D entry, after nearly 20 years, is incredible. The fact it’s also the mythical Metroid Dread is an amazing bonus, and I’m so happy that it went above and beyond my lofty expectations. With all that out of the way, I want more 2D Metroid now, please.
