Nintendo announced Metroid Ravenous for Switch 2, a 2D Metroid game launching January 28, 2027, that updates the series with 3D-like visuals, cinematic action, parrying, Morph Ball movement, and a new energy-absorption mechanic where Samus absorbs energy from enemies to survive—part of a Metroid revival following Dread, Prime remasters, and Prime 4.
