METROID RAVENOUS LANDS JANUARY 28, 2027

Metroid Ravenous continues the franchise's 2D roots with a fresh gameplay twist. Samus can now consume defeated enemies to acquire their abilities, adding a resource management layer to exploration and combat. The feeding system appears central to progression, enabling access to new areas and environmental interactions. This mechanic marks a departure from traditional power-up discovery while maintaining the series' core exploration and action gameplay. The 2027 release date positions Metroid Ravenous as a significant Nintendo Switch title for early that year. The game follows the success of Metroid Dread (2021), which revitalized the franchise after a lengthy gap. Official details on campaign length, enemy variety, and additional mechanics remain limited ahead of the January launch.
