Metroid Prime 4 had been announced in 2017, only for the game’s development to be redone a few years later. It was then re-revealed last year as Metroid Prime 4: Beyond. However, the game’s development being restarted is likely not the only reason why the game took so long to be shown. It’s also very possible that the game will be coming to the Nintendo Switch 2.
Sure enough, the latest Switch 2 rumor is supporting that theory. Content creator and game developer interviewer Reece “Kiwi Talkz” Reilly has major connections to former and current Metroid Prime devs, and recently took to social media to mention that they expect Metroid Prime 4: Beyond to be at Nintendo’s Switch 2 Direct on April 2nd. In fact, they’re “90% certain it will be in the Direct”. You can see his remarks about the matter down below.
Nintendo are constantly tweaking directs right down to the last minute but as of now I am 90% certain it will be in the Direct.

This is 100% accurate.
Mr. Sonicgalaxy27…are you insane?
Yeah of course it will be LMAO why wouldn’t it???
Oohhh are they gonna show us the new Mario Kart as well???? 😱😱😱😱😱
Water Is Wet
It’s gonna be very underwhelming if too much of this direct is covering games that we already know of.
Let’s make Mario Party 40, Pikmin 12, Breath of the Wild 9 and Donkey Kong Country Returns HD RERELEASE 5.
Nintendo is on the down and down. Looks like a bad future for gaming… Sony stopped making cool exclusives and stopped trying once they saw how much market share they own .. Microsoft has barely any exclusives left, Halo Infinite multiplayer has been a let down.. Gears of War is dead.. and now Nintendo is taking the safe approach by just making a “more powerful” Switch and calling it Switch 2.
Future looks bleak and boring. Wish it wasn’t so expensive to produce games. I would love to see a new company enter our industry.
Bet you’re the guy that’s not included in whatsapp groups
Yeah nintendo is doomed. No one will be a the switch 2. It’s gonna be another wii u situation and hopefully this ends the nintendo brand for good.
Correct. Sad thing is, Nintendrones don’t even realise how lost they are, they’ll never admit it.
Nintendo is doomed since 1889. Just saying.
Big deal and you have Iphone 1,2,3 and 4. So what Nintendo decided to make a more powerful Switch. And called it “Switch 2”
Why is this a bad thing? Even the Wii didnt outsell PS1.
This site comment section is pretty sad. And I’d a feeling it’s the one same guy with the low quality posts.
I think it’s funny that the person commenting about low quality posts can’t even type proper sentences.
