Publisher Nintendo and developer Retro Studios shared a new trailer for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond giving a longer overview of the long-awaited sequel.

Here’s a rundown on the new details, plus the trailer:

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond begins with an attack on the Galactic Federation UTO Research Center by Samus’ sworn archrival Sylux. Samus answers the distress call and soon becomes entangled in an unexpected disaster. Awakening on the unknown planet of Viewros, she must fight to survive and escape.

Viewros is home to ferocious beasts, and diverse locales – including lush jungles, a factory beset with storms, a research lab frozen in ice and a facility nestled in a volcano— each connected by a central desert called Sol Valley. Employ tools like the Scan Visor and Samus’ core abilities – like the Power Beam, Missiles, form-altering Morph Ball and more – to gather information, fight, access new areas and find a way forward. Samus will also receive mysterious Psychic Abilities that enable her to manipulate energy, activate machinery, and more.

Freely traverse the roadless desert of Sol Valley on Vi-O-La, a vehicle left behind by an ancient civilization. Use Vi-O-La to counter attacks from approaching enemies, and smash crystals at high-speed to convert them into the energy you’ll need on your adventure. Plus, depending on her location, Samus can instantly summon and ride Vi-O-La.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is set to launch for Switch and Switch 2 on December 4th, 2025.
