What a comeback for 2D Metroid after 19 years. Beautiful graphics for Switch, and intense gameplay for a side scroller. The game will get difficult even with the most powerful upgrades, and that’s fine. Multiplayer would have been fun, but this game still hits the mark. 9/10

Can be very hard at times. Great game overall!
Easily one of the very best games on Switch and a genuine masterpiece that’s up there with the likes of Mario Odyssey, Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom. It easily has some of the very best boss fights in the entire Switch library and I just can’t speak highly enough of this exceptional game. If you haven’t yet played Metroid Dread, seriously, what are you waiting for?
Total playtime: 16 hours
