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.

    One of the best additions to the Metroid line up. Keeps true to the style of Super Metroid, but with updated looks. Controls are great!

    If you own a Nintendo Switch, you pretty much have to have this game, unless you absolutely hate Metroidvania games of course.

    i love this game but it so hard :( so if you get frustrated easily, like i do, i wouldn’t recommend. only reason i don’t give 5 stars is because i wish i could have a little more guidance in the game when i get stuck, but metroid is notorious for just figuring it out. but overall really cool game :)

    Finally a return to metroid. The game felt a bit short could have been longer. Bosses aren't too challenging. Best played on tv.
