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.

    A must have for swich owners. Love the retro 80s style. It's not as interesting as Hollow Knight or Ori but still a great game.

    I have been a Metroid fan since 1986. Dread is a great follow up to Fusion. If you're a Metroid fan, you won't be disappointed.

    This is the best side-scrolling Metroid, period. Boss fights are glorious and everything is polished to impeccable detail.

    Old school metroid formula, but modernized. Gameplay above graphics. 20-25 hour game. Does have backtracking unfortunately.
