Somehow, it’s 2021 and we still don’t have an HD Metroid game. Metroid Dread will change that by being the first in the franchise to be played in high-definition.

Even though Metroid Prime Trilogy for the Wii was playable on the Wii U, it never received an HD version of the game on Wii U or Switch. And although Samus Returns looked really cool in 3D on the 3DS, that wasn’t HD either.

Metroid Dread will be our first time seeing Samus in beautiful HD, and it may be the only time we do until Metroid Prime 4 eventually releases.
