NEW Metroid Prime 4 Updates: BIG Story Details Revealed? + New Multiplayer Hints Discovered

[@SuperMetalDave64]

Hit the LIKE BUTTON if you're excited for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. Thank you so much for your support on these Metroid Prime videos guys, you really make a big difference, and thanks for coming out during the Live react with me seeing this game in action for the first time. Let me know your thoughts on all the information in this video, what do you think about the possible Story Details we reveal here and also the interesting chance of having Online Multiplayer (of some sort) for Metroid Prime 4.

[@netweed09]

Great video Dave. Metroid Beyond / Link to the past. Keep up the great work.

Regarding Samus ship it looks so much like her helmet. What we need now is the “control the ship “ visor to do some flying/ air support…lol

[@Bi9Clapper]

Man the untapped potential of a Metroid Prime MP game is actually insane. Prime Hunters was a great example of what could be just on a tiny scale and 20 years ago on a handheld. People forget Prime Hunters had online MP AND in game voice chat on the DS, way ahead of it time for any Nintendo game even today

[@MarkLoweCEO]

Couldn't agree more. A new Metroid with the multiplayer aspects of Hunters would be absolutely phenomenal.

[@orthochronicity6428]

A bit pedantic but also relevant note (I'm a physicist if that helps to know): the logo does not look like a black hole but in fact it does resemble a white whole (but pedantically not). The silver portion resembles images/simulations of an accretion disk around a black hole (matter being pulled towards the event horizon). However, this shape isn't physical but an image formed from gravitational lensing of the light from the accretion disk being bent around the black hole due to warped spacetime. We see this less dramatically even with galaxies bending light (you can look up Einstein Rings); a black hole's singularity is not required. If it was a black hole we would not see anything else on the interior of the image as light wouldn't escape the event horizon, making the black hole famously black. Instead, we see a point of light. The mathematical counterpart (ie second solution to the equations) to a black hole is a white hole, with an event horizon that everything inside of must pass out of (instead of becoming trapped inside as with a black hole). Even light isn't fast enough to stay within... which means if there was a light source inside of the event horizon, the white hole would appear to glow (if it's visible light). This would also be a spacetime singularity which would warp spacetime sorta like a black hole would. Therefore, the logo looks a lot like an accretion disk around a luminous white hole. I'd also caution that white holes are not a part of any scientific theory. Just like you get that pesky plus and minus solution to quadratic equations back in your algebra class, you get multiple solutions all the time in physics. White holes are currently considered a unphysical mathematical figment, though some theorists do play around with those solutions in case we can learn something from them. That also means that not many (if any) people actually know what lensing from a white hole would look like. That said, the structure of a black hole's lensed image is a perfectly fine stand in. I would really love it if Retro did do the lensing for a white hole and it'd be the first time anyone saw a simulated image of that, just like Interstellar did for black holes (famously a paper was published on that which including all of the visual effect artists for the movie as authors).

[@VoidedMirror]

Time travel is cool, but can be very tricky to pull off without a ton of plot holes for the game as well as other games in the series. It’s very intriguing nonetheless.

[@hanspeter731]

Yeah... i hope they dont overdo it. Especially since Beyond takes place between the games. It could open plotholes like, why didnt Samus travel back to this time and prevent that from happening and so on. I hope they keep it low and somewhat unimpactful in the greater scheme of the story.

[@petercottantail7850]

consequential time travel is ok when the story is isolated in one area but when you are in space, it just makes everything accomplished or lost feel pointless. and the worst part is it also wastes world building potential, the entire universe at the writers fingertips to think of something creative but they choose to throw it out the window for a what if story that doesn't add anything at the end of the day. most of what makes Metroid in particular so classic is how bizar and alien it is, makes you want to know more and feel like you are apart of it. But when you are in the past, future or alternate present, its just a temporary play to act out, none of it means anything you'll never see it again and anything meaningful can just be taken away at a blink of an eye with no consequences, nothing is concrete so nothing matters. thats how i feel atleast. hoping the timetravel if there is any is just to visit areas you'd never be able to visit, or use them for puzzles to make the future different for Opening paths ect. which is what i assume they ment when comparing it to the dark world in prime2 to get past obstacles ect. but once you start changing timelines its gunna get stupid

[@luigi6388]

Please multiplayer hints give me hope, and prime 4 looks epic

[@BigWisper]

I need Metroid prime hunters multiplayer. Maps, hunters, game modes, everything from the DS all updated.

[@yizhu4422]

You‘re right，Nintendo Hongkong announced the Chinese name today：穿越未知. It means Crossing the unknown，but “穿越” in Chinese generally refers to TIME TRAVEL，the chinese title may have already been spoilt

[@ZwhatshQ]

Very interesting! Thanks!

[@EpsilonChurchRVB]

Considering this "secret weapon" is what Sylux is after, which may create a wormhole, similar to how the Leviathans were able to do so beforehand, I think this could lead to a time-traveling plot. We could potentially face phazon once again, bringing more variety of its kind in various types of ecosystems but in an alternate timeline in which phazon has conquered most of the galaxy. Samus would then has to face a corrupted version of herself in battle in this alternate timeline on multiple occasions, similar to Dark Samus in Prime 2, with Sylux somehow controlling her with newfound powers of phazon. It's a far-fetched theory, but it is something exciting to think about if done correctly! On a side note, I unfortunately didn’t get the chance to see the Direct live, but I know it must've been very exciting when seeing mention of the Galactic Federation in that first part of the trailer. I know it got me very excited just seeing the title of the trailer itself when it was already out hours later. This, Black Ops 6, and Silent Hill 2 are my most anticipated games to date, especially Prime 4 since I've been waiting for this game for years!

[@Austroid]

Since Samus is still using her Prime 3 ship, I wonder if they're dusting off the whole "bounty hunting side missions" thing they where developing for Prime 3, before scrapping it due to hardware constraints...

[@Nman48071]

Thanks for the awesome content, Dave. I fully agree with the theory about time travel according to Kensuke Tanabe's comments at the beginning of the video. I apologize for the long comment but here's my best explanation. The subtitle for this game is Beyond, possibly in reference to dimensions of existence and the black hole in the logo also supports this. The first three dimensions are length, width and height. The 4th dimension is time (which could be a reference to going "beyond" the traditional three dimensions that matter exists within) and the 5th dimension is space (the space-time relationship). Normally, an object in motion travels a over a distance (space) at a certain speed/rate (time). This relationship can be plotted on an x and y axis with x representing time and y representing space. However, according to Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity, when an object passes a black hole's event horizon (which is the point at which nothing can return from) and enters the black hole, the x and y axes are inverted. The object is no longer traveling through space over a given period of time, but instead through time towards a specific point in space (the singularity). The portal seen behind Samus in the trailer could be a worm hole that allowed her to travel back in time to a prehistoric era (which could be why we see a jungle with birds flying around that resemble dinosaurs, specifically pterodactyls, with no signs of industrialized/inhabited areas or technology of any kind). The secret ending at the end of Federation Force shows Sylux using a device to force a metroid egg to hatch (which could be hinting at him having a time machine that allowed him to speed up the life cycle of the metroid egg and force it to hatch). Thanks again for the video!

[@ChariotManGaming85]

I'm excited as hell for Metroid Prime 4 Beyond.

[@micdap7533]

I definitely like the idea of just being on one planet and making it huge. We don’t need multiple smaller planets to give the illusion of a big game (like starfield lol)

[@dietrichotto14]

The time travel theory has more than a kernal of truth to it. One of the lead developers of the first three MP games, Mike Wikan, conducted a tell-all interview with a KZbin channel called "Kiwi Talks" a couple years back. The interview is well worth the listen, as he went through a lot of fascinating details about the development process of the first three MP games. In it, he said that early on in the development of MP2 Echoes, the team at Retro couldn't decide if they wanted the game to revolve around a light world/dark world mechanic, or a time travel mechanic. Ultimately, Nintendo of Japan told them to go with the light world/dark world concept. Which is what we got in the final game. The reason why I bring this up is because the portal in the MP4 trailer looks similar in design to the MP2 dark/light portals. I wonder if Retro is now implementing this idea that they've had for a long time now.

[@ArouzedLamp]

In my opinion, prime 2 was not difficult to navigate at all with the dark world. Prime 3 with one way entries, rooms with exact same shapes (when using the map) transportation methods was the worst in terms of getting lost

[@ArouzedLamp]

I hated elysia and the pirate home world designs so much. Love the story and gameplay mechanics, just hate getting lost

[@dennisellis3605]

Damn. I loved corruption and played it the most. I hope echoes gets a remaster because I missed that one

[@joaquimcallahan5274]

I feel like 1 and 2 are the best to pick up and enjoy every now and then, 3 was just addictive once you got everything figured out

[@BrainWasherAttendent]

I really want to play Echoes on switch. It was overlooked.

[@luigi6388]

I totally agree with Echoes but i dont think that mp3 design was that bad

[@novustalks7525]

It's fantastic to finally see metroid finally utitilise it's story and lore. It has such a fascinating universe with so many ideas yet none of them ever get any focus.

[@BooliumNor]

I honestly hope that the world is like Metroid Prime 1. Especially having a ruins of some sort as well as the a Tallon Overworld type of area which we see in the trailer. I would like the Metroid prime 2 portal mechanic, but I don’t want the toxic air mechanic. A time mechanic like Titanfall 2 would be fun. Or like that Portal fan game with a 3rd portal that is for time. The other thing I don’t want is for the other beams to have ammo. The ammo system works for missiles, but I don’t want to feel restricted to the standard beam.

[@MetroidTheorist]

I was expecting time travel. This interview is something I recalled. I'm just surprised that they stuck with this, even after restarting the project. Now, what I am wondering is what this planet is. Is this Cylosis? It's worth noting that Metroid: Other M doesn't mention a duration of time, but six months to a year is a possibility. Samus is so focused on the events of Super Metroid, that it wouldn't make sense to have Beyond to occur after Super. There are some details I have about Beyond, as well as Sylux, but that's for an upcoming video.

[@MultiDarkII]

im going to binge watch ur theory videos now better not disappoint me

[@vesperancetv4546]

yea, i think sylux is trying to save his planet from federation destruction by using stolen time travel technology, and we will learn of this by following him through time portals he creates.

[@leoistari]

I fantasize with a Metroid game where Samus becomes the Mother Brain And she could control Metroid as part of the mechanic. If you think about it, it would be fair. Samus has some Metroid dna, becoming Mother Brain would be most fitting thing.

[@rmat9023]

Legend of Metroid: Ocarina of Prime?

[@LoboRundas]

It's been a while, but I think other M takes place a while after Super Metroid, given Samus saying something along the lines of "the memory of the events in zebes turned to legend in the minds of the people" (heavily referencing from memory, its in the cutscenes before going to the bottle ship). So it might be that prime 4 takes place in that time, or there might be some timeline shenanigans at play

[@alexgrunde6682]

My pet theory is that it’s an alternate universe traversal mechanic. Sylux traveled to an alternate universe with metroids that are more malleable, hence why they’re under his command and don’t look like regular metroids. Samus then has to travel to said universe in order to figure out a way to defeat these bizarro metroids.

[@Nubcakelmfao]

Those actually look more akin to "Mochtroids." They're the Space Pirates' attempt at cloning Metroids, resulting in an inferior creature with only 1 brain node, instead of a Metroid's signature 3

[@AtahanUnver71]

What I Believe is. Sylux knows they are not metroids and he would want real ones. So he decides to stole time traveling device from the research base. So, he can fullfil his unknown plan?

[@v4skunk739]

Far more likely than time travel.

[@grantsplays7980]

Prime 2 is one of my favorite games of all time, so I'm very happy that Prime 4 seems like it will be taking a similar approach with the time travel mechanic (really hoping this actually happens)

[@dilbert627]

Good find on the interview. If they held on to the Dread concept for 15 years, I don't doubt they're sticking with the time shift idea, and perhaps that's why development was restarted? It was too ambitious of an idea for the original devs, so they had to bring it back to retro, which was obviously the right call

[@joseangelhernandez5274]

Time Travel huh, i wonder if we'll get some Mother Brain action.

[@felixgarcia9960]

Ok here is my Hot take for Metroid prime 4 arm cannon concept The only thing I ask for Samus arm canon to be customizable. What I mean is for her to beams can mixed with different kinds of beams so that the person can play in there unique way. (Making up names for beams) scatter beam sniper beam, rapid beam just to name a few. Not only beams perhaps the rockets as well!! How much fun that would be!! Imagine her looking upon her arm cannon before a big fight and preparing accordingly, and her and part of her arm cannon has a mini screen for you to mix it up or a save station or missile room which ever!! That would be awesome!! Ohh!!

[@jamessexton4506]

Nice info Dave! With time travel, the final scene could even be from the same planet that Samus landed on in the beginning, but from its lush prehistoric past (w/ pterodactyls). This game could be crazy! MP was designed for the, now ancient, Gamecube and look how Remastered's gameplay still holds up. Even MP3 was on Wii. Switch is over 10x more powerful so, graphics aside, more level design ideas are technically feasible now.

[@blackinkster]

Within an hour of the trailer releasing and some analysis I saw the portal in the tree trunk and it had me questioning 🤨, the name beyond and the black hole logo instantly pointing towards a time travel mechanic. I also remembered that tanabe mentioned messing with world changing events like on prime 2 but on a bigger scale, or in this case with time travel. And can I just say I love that all of us metroid super fans are seeing/remembering this 😊 Edit: If prime 4 is chrono trigger levels of time travel, with multiple eras that would instantly be my favorite Metroid game.

[@sergeaucoin1]

Imagine if Samus travels back in time to save her pet Metroid and bring it back as a sidekick

[@cptmike90]

[@MultiDarkII]

@@cptmike90 and prime 4 takes place 2 years after super metroid, so whats ur point bra

[@carl_bisenius]

Would have to go into the future for that to happen first. Also how would that work if the Metroid DNA in Samus in Dread is from the baby that dies in Super Metroid? Too many retcons for that to work

[@ZwhatshQ]

Yeah I think we're going to get a combination of MP3s grand scope combined with MP1s more isolated scope by having a time travel mechanic available on one single planet. So the enviroments are gonna change drastically depending on what time you're in, but everything is still gonna be grounded on one single planet like in MP1. I'm also really hoping for a multiplayer mode. Not because it's necessary but for all the reasons you've mentioned, and also because I really want to see the return of the characters from Hunters. There's huge potential for some really unique multiplayer modes with the Metroid franchise! And it would dramatically increase the replayability of the game!

[@oscarvaldes5621]

I realllllly hope time travel is never incorporated in Metroid, Metroid has a nice timeline and I would hate if this game messed it up or created a new timeline or something like that

[@mmanx3]

It would make sense to be right after super and around that time, since you can see the metroids of sylux are actually mochtroids looking at their 1 brain in the middle, which appeared first in Super

[@alexgewecke9576]

Metroid Prime 2 is definitely the hardest of the 3. I did a minimalist (glitchless, trickless, no unnecessary upgrades) run of all 3, but 2 was the only one I couldn’t finish on veteran. I managed 1 on hypermode and 3 on veteran.

[@brodericpeet5295]

I dont know about many others but i actually loved echoes sure it was difficult back then but i really enjoyed the light and dark words

[@eiriseven]

It wont take place after Super, the X in the dates is just so they dont have to put an exact number. All Prime games are cornered to the pre M2 timeframe so they can use metroids and pirates, this will be the same.

[@tonyvegaart1605]

The date doesn't specify what decade. I think the prime games take place a decade before super. That's just my guess

[@vesperancetv4546]

Honestly, I think Sylux will have a sympathetic story that will be shown through the time traveling. I think Sylux was experimented on to be a controllable Samus clone (hence his similarities) by the Galactic Federation but he escaped, & that he steals the Metroid as he knows of the Federation's corruption and he feels for it as they would likely experiment on it as well. It's likely his Shock Coil is derived from experiments with Metroids. I think Sylux is stealing a time travel device to save his planet from the Federation, and we will follow him through time portals and learn of this. Then we will get a bait and switch for the big bad being some sort of experimental bioweapon by the Federation that Sylux is trying to take down to save his planet.

I'm a bit sceptical on time travel, since I'm afraid of permanent alternate timeline shenanigans (Zelda has thoroughly gotten me sick of them), but if it pulled off well it could be awesome. Would also be an indication of good things to come imo, since it would break the prime series out of the time window between NES and II which I feel like has gotten stale.

Nobody is going to probably read this comment. One thing that caught my attention. In the end of FF, we see Sylux hatching a single Metroid egg and in the cutscene of MP4, there are 2 Metroid's? How did Sylux have 2 Metroid's? when he only hatched one? Unless he cloned them!

The difference in the ships is 100% just a difference in developers and art style, not to mention Samus has so many different ships at this point it doesn't really matter. Another good example of difference in developer/art style is in Dread the ship looks similar to the Fusion ship but the Varia and Fusion suits look massively different in Dread than in Fusion or any other previous games.

Other m takes place immediately after super, and old fusion manuals said that game is 20X8

God I love Echos, idc what anyone says it is so far the best of the series.

The end had me mad it was given anoher year. I want to play it now

Cant say I care in the slightest about a multiplayer mode in a Metroid game. Always thought it was wasted time and effort on the teams part in prime 2 and I dont even pay for switch online service. Metroid is purely a single player atmospheric beautifully immersive game series for me. That said I say let the team do whatever they want but please for the love of God do no let it effect the single player experience. Do not cut ideas/areas/bosses or any kind of content from the main single player experience in order to allow the team to work more on the multiplayer. Cant wait for prime 4. Looks fantastic.

That Intro!

[@notmattmclellan]

Very interesting, so they are taking some plays out of the Tears of the Kingdom playbook

[@notmattmclellan]

I am curious how the story will manage causality. Like in MP2, when you changed something in Dark Aether, something would happen in the overworld, but time travel can get really complex with changing everything. I think it'll make the world exploration so vast that no two gameplays will be the same.

7 Years guys...this is unreal

[@tonyvegaart1605]

I think the date is referring to a different decade.

[@Cursedtobless]

Bro I'm hyped for the game. But why do the textures look smudged, or blurred like clay??? I'm not the only one seeing this am I?

[@LetsPlayNintendoITA2023]

you know that the multiplayer thing is for prime 2 hd multiplayer mode right?

[@rubendarioburgosordonez4242]

That explains why development was restarted and took so long. “The current development status of the game is very challenged…. Development time will be extensive”

[@Nekotaku_TV]

I hope it includes time travel.

An interview published in 2015 and speculation based on someone's previous jobs.

[@chrissace.]

u cooked with this one NGL

[@Bi9Clapper]

Prime is no longer a prequel this is the furthest in the timeline even past Dread I'm almost certain of it, the first thing they showed in the trailer was the date 20x9 they pointed it out for that reason.

[@Bi9Clapper]

Also calling it now i think Sylux becomes the next Metroid Prime
