Movement and combat in this game is going to be a delight

[@epsilon1372]

agreed and it looks super clean too

[@TheKingsPride]

The melee counter was a great addition to Samus Returns, I’m glad that they’re leaning more into that style of combat. My only complaint about the melee counter was that most strategy boiled down to “wait for it to flash and press the button” so a more proactive approach is gonna be sick.

[@bensaadoussema9679]

@@TheKingsPride that's why they added the free mode for countring foes. you don't need to wait you can engage the counter when you feel it.

[@liammccafferty4755]

There’s a clip of the speed booster and it now keeps momentum from wall jumps and you don’t need to Mach Ball to keep the boost if you jump. That alone makes me hyped beyond belief.

For real. I was hoping for a Samus Returns port onto switch. But Metroid Dread is a dream come true: a brand new Metroid game, not a remake, and it finally continues the story post Fusion too.

[@ChrisMS0815]

That game should have been on the Switch or at least ported to it later.

[@Turo602]

I loved how Mercury Steam evolved the 2D gameplay in Samus Returns and was even able to add a cinematic touch to the experience without disrupting the flow of gameplay. But I always felt like they weren't living up to their fullest potential because they were restricted by the conventions established by the original Metroid II. But after this trailer, they're really laying it out there with what they have to offer this franchise with a brand new original game and it looks incredible. Nintendo should just acquire Mercury Steam already. This is their series now.

@Travis Newsome Precisely. The 2D genre went almost extinct on home consoles in the PS2/Xbox/GC and PS3/360/Wii era. Developers thought that 2D genres would not sell minus a few faces like Mario and DK. Luckily, indies mightve actually saved the 2D platforming scene.

Once 2D was left behind for 3D, companies basically just moved on from it with no interest in going back.

[@HowToGameDifferently]

Its crazy how one trailer can make you go "yep, I'm getting this game"

[@MineCreeperLPs]

I was already going to get it this trailer just made me want it more

[@GonzLor_16]

The speedruns of this game will be crazy

[@ronaldrage2118]

this trailer looks so sick. as a new speedrunner of fusion, this trailer just makes things even better!

[@playstationarusu]

Speedrunning fusion, eh? You have more patience than I

[@squeenixu]

SPEED. BOOSTER. YES.

[@wurtknurte7283]

0:38 As you can see here, Samus is displaying the exact mood of: "Ah s**t, here we go again."

[@thesimiccombine3192]

This is hype. Out of all the games you guys have shown off, this one caught me the most off gaurd but made me the most excited.

[@dis_inferno9173]

Damn, it's such good trailer. I'm rewatching it almost every day.

[@lionablaze8747]

damn, this is going to be one delicious adventure. buy this game, people.

[@bandiddums]

One problem, do I buy the steam deck or wait for the switch pro first?

[@kori7795]

Can I play it without playing the other metroid games?

[@aronlb1461]

@@kori7795 Yes. The most important thing about any Metroid game is it's gameplay. But if you want to get context of what is happening you should play Fusion.

[@CarlosXPhone]

I am buying. But this music... I hope its in the final game.

[@bruxtle]

Looks cool but I don't like metroidvanias so I probably won't get it

[@salvatore1915]

I cannot get over how beautiful this looks.

[@N.i.E.M.O]

I'm as hyped as anyone else, but graphically, this game looks anything but 'beautiful'.

[@Luxembourgish]

For a Switch game the graphics aren't that great, Prime 4 I imagine will have AAA FPS graphics though.

[@gabereell]

@@N.i.E.M.O i do not know why everyone is saying this, i honestly think the devs absolutely nailed the style they were going for. plus, metroid (especially 2D) would feel off with realistic graphics.

[@MrCharly780]

@@Luxembourgish but those games with better graphics don't have 60fps, big difference right there

[@N.i.E.M.O]

@@gabereell If 2007 indie Xbox 360 era graphical fidelity is the 'style' they were going for, then yes, they absolutely nailed it.

[@d_shuffles]

Wait... I was on the fence about buying this.. Now im sold, this looks so freaking good.

[@johnny-mnemonic13]

I remember you and your negative criticism on one of the earlier trailers. Glad you changed your outlook on this!

[@d_shuffles]

@@johnny-mnemonic13 Sorry for the bad impression

[@Not-Andy-Here]

@@d_shuffles It was the $60 that primarily held you back right?

[@d_shuffles]

@@Not-Andy-Here That and my initial impression was it would be like Samus Returns with the boss fights. Variations of the hunter machines like the variations of the Metroids. The variety of bosses, equipment and environment won me over today.

[@gunslinger9786]

Glad you opened your eyes.

[@amirgarcia547]

I didn’t think I could be more hyped for this game than I already was, but man, did this trailer prove me wrong. If I had a time machine and it only had one use, I’d solely use it so that I could travel to October 8th and finally play this game.

[@BryantWhite]

Such a bad use of a time machine

[@goatgeta6549]

@@BryantWhite lol

[@nerdypie1236]

@@BryantWhite you are right. They should time travel to when Metroid Dread DLC comes out

A Chozo leader in a power suit? Finally, a worth opponent for Samus, their battle is gonna be legendary!
