We’ve caught wind of a hot rumor that will have some Nintendo fans going wild.

The new tip claims a new Metroid game is currently in development for Nintendo’s recently unveiled Switch console. Unfortunately, that’s all we have to go off of for now.


The most recent game in the series, Metroid Prime: Federation Force, was released this year for the Nintendo 3DS. The game has you playing as a grunt and is likened to Metroid Prime Hunters, a multiplayer-focused shooter.

Could this be a return to a traditional Metroid game by Nintendo? Only time will tell. Sound off in the comments below with your thoughts!

Editor’s note: We’ve had some folks asking for our source – the tipster confirmed the game’s development. If we said more, the source would get into trouble.
