Metroid Prime 4 Beyond and top games of December 2025 — Marvel Cosmic Invasion, Yakuza 0

Eight years of waiting. One development restart. And now Metroid Prime 4: Beyond has finally reached gamers — along with the new Nintendo Switch 2 console. December 2025 promises to be hot for everyone who has been glued to the gamepad for a long time.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond — the return of a legend

Release date: December 4 Platform: Nintendo Switch 2

The game was announced back in 2017, then development was restarted from scratch, transferring the project to Retro Studios, the creators of the original trilogy. And the wait was worth it.

What awaits us:

· Samus Aran on the mysterious planet Vyuros

· First-person action with Metroidvania elements

· Exploration, puzzles and battles

· New generation graphics

· The most ambitious part of the series

Nintendo only released the game because it lived up to the standard of the original trilogy. The perfectionism has paid off.
