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 to show off the Oled screen. Besides as a true retro gamer you’d be doing yourself a disservice for not playing this.

    Very well done....game of the year for the switch in my humble opinion. Everything is well done from the levels and the soundtrack.

    If you loved 2d Metroid games in the past or new to it, you will enjoy this 5 installation of Samus's story. Very fun and great plot.

    Shopping was quick and easy and shipping was fast. Only thing was it that I didn’t get a notification when it arrived. When my boyfriend opened door it was just sitting there on floor. What’s bad about that, he was able to realize that it was a game and kinda ruined the Christmas gift

    I've been waiting for this title to come to Switch since a long time. I played it a few years back on Game boy Advanced. I love it.

    The game looks amazing but falls short on controls and gameplay, At times it becomes frustrating playing hide and seek with okay controls. Overall I felt the Metroid Nostalgia but would lose the feel due to the Hide and seek mechanics.

    Great metroid game. Holds a lot of classic elements while upgrade. E.M.M.I.s are tough.
