Metroid Dread is the first new 2D Metroid game in 19 years. You’ll suit back up as intergalactic bounty hunter Samus Aran as she travels to the mysterious planet of ZDR to rid the alien world of an imposing new foe. You’ll fight off deadly robots, gain new abilities to add to Samus’ repertoire, and use all that you’ve learned to expose new paths in secrets throughout the sprawling world.
