Metroid Prime 4 Rated for Teens Aged 13 and Up

Metroid Prime 4 Beyond’s Release Window Tightens

Speculation is buzzing around Metroid Prime 4: Beyond, particularly concerning its potential release date. The game recently secured an ESRB rating in the U.S., classifying it for players aged 13 and up due to violence and some blood. This follows an earlier 12+ age recommendation from South Korea in July, which noted the game involves fighting aliens with weapons. Such ratings typically indicate that content development for Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is complete or nearing its final stages. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond is officially slated for a 2025 release on both the original Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch 2. However, with Pokémon Legends: ZA scheduled for October 16 and Kirby Air Riders in November, determining a precise launch window becomes challenging. A September release appears improbable, given October’s association with Pokémon. Nintendo might opt for a November launch, potentially not viewing it as competition for Kirby Air Riders, or could defer its release until December.
