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.

    Peak Metroid. Nothing gets better than this, honestly. Yes, Super Metroid is the defining genre game, however, this game takes the best elements of Super, Zero Mission, Fusion and Samus Returns and merges them into this wonderful symphony of a beautifully crafted Metroid game. Bravo to all who worked on it!

    Nintendo never disappoints with the Metroid series. This game looks and functions beautifully but it is hard (VERY HARD) and at times frustrating. I honestly recommend it but only if you are a up for a challenge.
