You can pre-order it now on Amazon for $46.49, down from its original price of $50.

If you preorder from Amazon, you’re guaranteed to get the lowest price – if the price drops before the item ships, you’ll automatically receive the difference.

Preorder Metroid Prime 4: Beyond + Amiibo

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond will be released on December 4th for both the new Nintendo Switch 2 and the original Switch. Pre-orders for the Switch 2 version are open now at retailers like Amazon and Walmart for $70, while the Switch version costs $60.

More Metroid Games

Before you jump into Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, we strongly suggest playing Metroid Prime Remastered – it’s a top-tier Nintendo Switch game and will help you get ready for the new release. If you’re a fan of the original 2D Metroid games, Metroid Dread (on Switch) and Metroid: Samus Returns (on 3DS) are excellent choices. Samus Returns is a fantastic remake of an older title, but it didn’t get as much attention when it came out in 2017 after the Switch launched. Both Dread and Samus Returns were created by MercurySteam.

• Metroid Prime Remastered (Switch) — $40
• Metroid Dread (Switch) — $54 ($60)
• Metroid Dread (Import) — $47 ($60)
• Metroid: Samus Returns (3DS) — $49

Nintendo Switch Online subscribers can now play the original five Metroid games on both Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Switch 2. The first three Metroid games – Metroid, Metroid II, and Super Metroid – are included with the standard Nintendo Switch Online membership, which costs $20 per year. If you want to play Metroid Fusion and Zero Mission, which originally launched on Game Boy Advance, you’ll need the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership for $50 a year.

For fans who want the full Metroid experience, PowerA has released a new wireless controller officially licensed and featuring artwork of Samus Aran and a galactic design. They’ve also created Metroid-themed earbuds, which come with a matching drawstring bag featuring artwork from the series.
