Instead of continuing a game they weren't proud of, they poured time and effort into a remaster of a classic game that brought Metroid into the first-person shooter genre. While fans were disappointed with the initial delay of Metroid Prime 4, the team at Retro Studios has clearly put in effort learning and understanding why the original Metroid Prime is so beloved by the gaming community as a whole. It’s a little disheartening to look back on now given the massive delay, but this is the Metroid Prime 4 teaser showcased at E3 2017.The release of Metroid Prime Remastered highlights the important fact that the new team at Retro Studios has experience developing a game in the Metroid Prime universe. That takes Metroid Prime 4‘s likely release date from “possibly in 2019” to most likely not before 2021. Considering that all development progress made up until the point that Retro Studios took over has seemingly been scrapped, it could be quite a while until we actually see this game. There is currently no release date for Metroid Prime 4. With that said, here’s everything that we know about Retro Studios’ Metroid Prime 4: Metroid Prime 4 Release Date While it might be a long time before we see Metroid Prime 4, here’s hoping that the game we get will be worth the wait. The team is led by original Metroid Prime trilogy producer Kensuke Tanabe.
Former DICE art director Jhony Ljungstedt ( Battlefield 5, Mirror’s Edge Catalyst) has joined former Halo lead character artist Kyle Helfey, and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze lead designer Stephen Dupree. The team that Retro has built around Metroid Prime 4 is pretty impressive, too. While this delay is most certainly unfortunate, we’ve seen what happens when other studios get Metroid games wrong, and the results are not pretty. Many people hoped that Retro would be the developer to work on Metroid Prime 4 in the first place. The studio has proven that it understands what makes this series special and what makes Metroid Primetitles work. While that does mean that Metroid Prime 4 is going to be delayed even further, it’s actually kind of hard to not see this as somewhat encouraging news. Developer Retro Studios ( Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze) was responsible for the first three Metroid Prime games. However, it was widely speculated that Bandai Namco had been given the task. What’s fascinating about this is that Nintendo never confirmed who was working on Metroid Prime 4 prior to this recent announcement. Why would Nintendo just restart the development of one of its most anticipated new games? The company didn’t share all of the details, but it indicated during the video announcement that the game just wasn’t living up to the expectations it had set for this franchise.
