Metroid Dread Reclaims U.S. eShop Top Spot Ahead of Ravenous Reveal

Metroid Dread has reclaimed the U.S. Switch eShop’s #1 spot nearly five years after its 2021 launch, aided by a Nintendo Direct reveal of Metroid Ravenous for Switch 2 (due Jan. 28, 2027) and a 30% discount on first‑party titles in the eShop’s Customer Appreciation Sale; the Ravenous trailer drew 3.2 million views, and Dread currently stands as the top‑selling Switch title on the U.S. eShop, signaling potential momentum for the franchise as Ravenous’ arrival approaches.
