That I can say that I’ve played and completed Metroid Prime 4: Beyond feels like a small miracle in of itself. As a longtime fan of the series who has spent the past eighteen years waiting hungrily for a proper sequel to to the captivating, genre-bending Metroid Prime trilogy, part of me is simply happy this game exists as a real thing I can play. Those original titles helped define my taste in games over the years that followed, and set a high bar as a stellar example of how to balance a rewarding sense of exploration with smart environmental storytelling and engaging first-person combat. While I didn’t necessarily need Metroid Prime 4 to reinvent the wheel, I was certainly open to it experimenting with some new ideas to push the franchise forward – hopefully, while managing to recapture everything that made the original games so special.
