Snackgirls react
Red: The moment Samus starts devouring enemies, I’m going straight for the biggest boss in sight. I want to see that new instinct in action.
Nea: Being marooned on an unfamiliar moon is what has me curious. I’m already wondering what its corridors might reveal about her awakened instincts.
Metroid Ravenous launches January 28, 2027, exclusively for Nintendo Switch 2. The all-new 2D action adventure gives Samus a striking new survival tool: awakened Metroid instincts that let her devour enemies.
Stranded on an unfamiliar moon
An ambush leaves Samus marooned on an unfamiliar moon, where she must navigate corridors and battle bosses. Her predator-like new ability sits at the center of that fight for survival.
The Special Edition and launch-day amiibo
The Standard and Special Editions arrive together. The Special Edition includes a physical copy of the game, a SteelBook case, and a Samus (Metroid Suit) amiibo. The Samus amiibo will also be available individually alongside a larger Chozo Statue amiibo, while details of their in-game functionality will be announced later.
