Overview

  • A VGC visit to Oxford Circus tube station confirmed a poster for Metroid Prime4: Beyond labeled 'Out Now,' despite no official launch.
  • Identical 'Out Now' labels on Mario Kart World ads suggest a template error rather than an actual release.
  • Nintendo has not provided a release date and the title has not appeared on any Nintendo Switch or Switch2 eShop.
  • Retro Studios resumed development in 2019 after Nintendo shifted the project from Bandai Namco, and the game is expected to release later in 2025.
  • Fans are speculating on an August or September release and anticipate that the Switch2 version will support mouse controls and run at 120FPS.
