Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the excellent gameplay, overall performance, and well-executed controls of Metroid Dread. Many appreciate the engaging story, exploration, and action-packed nature of the game, while some find the difficulty to be a positive aspect. Criticisms include concerns about certain boss encounters, the price point, and the limited presence of music. Some players also felt the game was a little too linear and that the EMMI zones became repetitive.

    Great game, especially if you are a fan of the Saga. New abilities like the melee attack and flash step are great additions. So far only at 20% of the game and addicted.

    This game is very challenging. Although it’s also a very beautiful game and as a long time Metroid fan I would say is one of the top three in the series.

    It's been 19th years since a release of an actual 2D Metroid game and it was well worth the wait. Sure there are some minuscule flaws but all and all it's a great game

    Great game so far. I bought to play on the OLED switch and it looks good. I don't like how it's cut scenes are super slow other than that it is a good game.
