In an official Metroid Prime 4 update video, Nintendo EPD general manager Shinya Takahashi announced that development on Prime 4 had been restarted. Metroid Prime 4 would then continue to remain silent until early 2019. And when we think we’re ready to show Metroid Prime, we’ll show Metroid Prime… We’ll share more Metroid Prime 4 when we have something we think is going to wow people.” “…We show things when we think we’re ready to show them. The official statement by Trinen in regards to the lack of E3 footage is as follows: The lack of concrete details or footage of any kind, however, especially at E3 2018, began to make fans think otherwise. In 2018, Eurogamer claimed Prime 4 was being developed by Bandai Namco Studios of Japan and Singapore, including previous LucasArts staff who had worked on the canned Star Wars 1313 game.įurther in 2018, Nintendo President Reggie Fils-Aime continued giving statements about Metroid Prime 4, how it was “well into development” and “ proceeding well”. Still, the project would be overseen and produced by Kensuke Tanabe, the producer of previous Metroid titles. After the announcement, it was confirmed by Bill Trinen, Director of Product Marketing at NoA, that the game was not being developed by Retro Games, the studio that handled the Prime Trilogy. Tantalizing, yes, but it was the only proof fans had that the game existed. All Metroid fans had was a shiny new logo plastered onto a black background, with the number “4” glowing ominously, before the screen faded out. Metroid Prime 4 was revealed to the world during E3 2017, though, “revealed” is an overstatement.
