Metroid Dread - Trailer 2 - Nintendo Switch

"In this new trailer, we introduce a few of Samus Aran’s brand-new abilities and some of the mysterious terrors lurking in the shadows of planet ZDR."

Hahaha You think this is the real Kraid? It is!

Best trailer so far. I always thought that a rogue Chozo survivor as an antagonist would be a great idea. The chozo presence in the games were always that of an extinct race with left-behind artifacts.

It also seems like they're going for an intense scifi horror atmosphere. We haven't really seen that in a metroid game since Super Metroid.

Vegamyster1723d ago

Fusion had a good horror theme going, from the eerie/off beat music, Samus getting told how weak she is the entire game and to run if she encounters one of the many SA-X or when investigating you could hear or see things that destroyed the environment etc.

Eamon1722d ago

Those SA-X moments were definitely very tense. But I never really found Fusion to be scary or creepy. Metroid 2 and Super Metroid definitely had the scary creepy atmospheres. If Dread can match or surpass that, then Dread has the potential of being the best Metroid game ever made.

This is starting to look like a must buy...

The 10 Biggest Nintendo Direct Moments of the Switch Generation

VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "Last week Nintendo held this year's surprisingly packed not-E3 Direct; with a full schedule for this year and a vague promise of a console successor next year, it's very possible that we've now seen our final Nintendo Switch Direct, or at least one with major first party reveals. That makes this a good time to sit back and reflect on a generation of Direct moments, from the shocking and surprising, to the joyous and exhilarating - and, quite often, all at once."

Metroid Dread Has Sold Over 3 Million Copies, Reveals Developer

Enric Álvarez, the CEO of Metroid Dread developer MercurySteam, has revealed that the title has now sold over three million copies worldwide.

It’s good to see Metroid do well. Hopefully we hear something soon about Metroid Prime 4

Wait up, 3 million worldwide out of a possible 120 million is considered good for a legendary franchise like metroid?

JEECE1020d ago

Metroid has never sold super well. Lots of people under under the mistaken impression that, because franchises like Mario Kart, Smash Bros., 3D Mario games, more recent Zelda games, and Animal Crossing sell huge numbers, that all Nintendo franchises sell at that level, and that they always have.

This is pretty good for a Metroid. Dread will probably end up being the best-selling game in the franchise, if it isn't already.

Sciurus_vulgaris1020d ago (Edited 1020d ago )

Metroid Prime was said to have sold 2.8 million copies, so Dread is likely the best selling game in the series.

Not everyone is a metroid freak ho ho ho

It took some doing but I'm glad it finally made it past that milestone.
